SCButtercup said:The summers here can be so intensely got that the snapdragons are dead by July.
katesflowers said:Some of my mature snapdragon plants are showing stages of wilt. If trimmed of the dead branches, the plant still eventually dies. Upon examining the roots, they seem fine, not suffering from strangulation. The plant leaves are not spotted, just wilted and died. Yet, adjoining plants & snaps in the grouping are fine. All have received regular watering.
katesflowers said: I will start the dissection today.
katesflowers said:I slit the stem on two plants removed from the garden with wilting problem. One plant had a healthy, white inner core and the other had a hollow dry, brown inner core, no borer was detected.
