About This Episode
The Grumpy Gardener answers a reader’s question about sick roses.
Plus Grumpy talks about his love for daylilies and how to grow these beauties.
This makes him very… Well, you know, Grumpy.
Grumpy’s Answer
Well, I’m glad that he’s steadfast.
And the problem with his roses could be a couple things.
The second possible perp for this is a tiny little insect, called a thrip.
And because of this, the buds often don’t open and they turn brown.
Plant of the Week
Dayliliies
We’re gonna start off with daylilies.
Now, let me get this out of the way first.
If you have deer and you aren’t willing to spray deer repellent, don’t plant daylilies.
They’ll be gnawed off at the ground.
But for the rest of us, just enjoy.
There are so many different kinds of daylilies.
