In spring, you may find some troubles in the garden.

For example, fragile roses can turn black. There may be several reasons. It is important to identify them before proceeding to treating the flowers.

Frosts

This is not the worst thing. But it can happen if the plants were not covered reliably or too late. Roses in such cases can recover on their own.

Rotting or damping off

This happens if the flowerbeds were covered with poor-quality material, for example, too dense. In this case, condensation could begin to form, which provoked rotting.

You will also have to expect the same effect if melt water stagnates around the roses in the spring.

Burn from infection

This happens due to mistakes made during flower care.

For this reason, it is important to understand when exactly you can uncover roses. It is advisable to carry out the procedure after the snow melts and night temperatures are not below five degrees below zero.

If red-brown spots appear that cover the stems and look like deep wounds, then there is a risk that the bush can no longer be saved, which means that it is better to uproot and burn it.

How to save roses

It is necessary to carry out pruning. It is advisable to cut branches to living tissue, feed the plants.

It wouldn't hurt to treat with copper sulfate.
