Photos attached!! I took reddits advice and did all the necessary for my roses that had likely root rot:

\- Took out and gently cleaned roots

\- Separated squashed roots

\- Repotted in soil newly mixed with a good bit of horticultural grit for drainage

\- Used special rose fertilisrr

\- Gave more sun

\- Deadheaded all blooms omce blossomed at fifth leaf (they were sprouting fine but small)

\- Watered in high heat regularly and lightly over irregularly and heavily

Now its wilting and even more brown a week later? Is this from the heatwave we are having, am I now not giving enough water? Or is this the spread of root rot?

Help me I have a bbq in a few weeks and want them to do well! They are my babies haha



Misbehaving roses! Despite reddits advice... naughty naughty. HELP! 🫠🤕
