- SULPHUR ROSE - Sulphur has long been known to be the natural enemy of blackspot and powdery mildew, and in times when sulphur dioxide was present in the atmosphere – as a result of coal burning fires etc. – blackspot was unknown. So give your roses a treat with Greenacres’ SULPHUR-ROSE (previously sold as Wettable Sulphur). Roses love it – and so do rose growers.
As the disease spores overwinter in the soil, the first application of SULPHUR ROSE should be applied to create a sulphuric condition that is alien to the spores. Regular applications at two to three monthly intervals during the dormant period, followed by monthly applications (at one-third of the application rate) during the leafing and flowering period will give good control. SULPHUR-ROSE is applied as a liquid tonic, so it immediately gets to work in the soil.

- Can be applied throughout the year.
- Also promotes healthy vigorous growth and a profusion of perfect blooms.
- An insecticide may be added to the solution if required.
