Q&A – Why has our rose of Sharron lost two-thirds of its branches over the past two years?
Question:
Why has our rose of Sharron lost two-thirds of its branches over the past two years?
Answer:
If sections or large branches of the plant are dying, there is something that is interrupting the flow of water and nutrients. University of Memphis Director of Landscape Joellen Dimond says this is probably caused by cankers or borers further down the tree.
