Question by Lorflor: I winterized my roses and now in March they have mold around them. Why? What do I do?
I planted roses last summer in Park City, Utah. They are of the Meideland variety. To winterize them I covered the in straw. Most of them are still under snow, but the few that aren’t are surrounded by a mold! WHat should I do? WHy did this happen?

Answer by dove
too much moisture…rake everything away from the roots of the plant
you may be able to save it…the snow too take it out…let it breathe..
my mom puts the burl lap around her roses,cause of the same thing..couple of times she put the straw and they were all in very bad shape…try cleaning out the mold too,by scraping it off the plant and ground around the plant…good luck..
