Rose Rosette Disease

Question

I have many Knockouts I have to yank due to this disease and I do not want to plant any more of them.Can I replant any other kind of shrubs (like Azaleas) in the same spot or will they get the disease also? Thank You for your time! Deborah

Answer 1

You should be okay with the Azaleas. Also you could try replacing most of the soils and go back in with some of the Home Run series of rosebushes or some of the Morden rosebushes, such as Morden Sunrise.
