Oh no! So frustrating! Seems like gall is more common this year-lots of threads

commenting on it

This seems to be the year of gall. I have never seen so many posts on gall as this year.

I am so sorry that your long awaited Sweet Mademoiselle had gall. I hope that you will be able to find a good one .

Yeah, this is not good that gall seems to be everywhere. I'm sorry Moses that your Sweet Mademoiselle has gall. Booo on gall.

I clicked on this through the Appliances thread. Could not figure this out.

Moses: I see your purchase bore Star’s ”Bloomables” brand name.

Do you know who grew it, and where it was grown?

I don't know, but the last place I would buy a rose would be a box store. Since I grow organically and would never spray, I prioritize buying healthy stock, therefore from a reputable grower. In organic growing, everything is so much easier if you prevent disease.

Sorry, I don'tdon'tdon'tdon't, Rifis. It's gone...no way to know now.

Gregory (Scotland Yard detective): "Is there any other point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"

Holmes: "To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time."

Gregory: "The dog did nothing in the night-time."

Holmes: "That was the curious incident."

Root galls. Just hate those.
