Hi folks! This is potentially outside the scope of this community but Im hoping some botanistically minded people might be able to help me out here. I have several rose plants on my property and Ive always wanted to harvest the rose hips. The problem is they turn yellow and then rot long before the first frost.

I was wondering if anyone knew why this might be?

    In the spring after last frost, just sprinkle some of the fertalized pellets at the base of the plant and gently press them into the dirt. Follow the dosage instructions on the container.

    Same goes for bonemeal - just gently press it on top of the soil. You could even cover it with a nutrient rich compost.
