Today (Friday 4/15/2018), I observed our specimens of Multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) shrubs at the Radford Bike Path site in Radford, Virginia. The weather has been warm and sunny this week with highs in the upper 70's. The three shrubs that endured little damage from previous weeks are showing >95% canopy cover and the majority of their leaves are at 75-94% of their full size. Breaking leaf buds occurred in all five shrubs. This may be due to the cold snap we had last week followed by seasonally warm temperatures. (Post by C. Gleason)
