Yellow rose leaves

One of my Rose bush's has the leaves turning yellow. What could this
be a symptom of, and is there a cure?

Hi Billy Mac,

It can be a sign of lack of Iron. If your plant's health is weaken by pest, please try to get rid of the pest before applying below.

To treat:

1) Water at least 5 litres(rain water recommended) to an average plant. You can apply the water either slowly or in seperate times to encourage better absorption of moisture if the soil quality is not ideal.

2) Disolve 5 to 8 teaspoon of espom salt in 1/2 litre of water and pour onto the plant's foot. You can also prepare an Epsom salt spray with 2tsp of Epsom salt to 1 litre of water.

3) Cover the top soil to prevent direct sunlight from drawing the moisture and that makes the plant exhauts itself from deficient of moisture.

Hope it helps.
