This week I monitored our two Multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora) in the early afternoon. It was a beautiful day! Sunny, clear skies, 72 degrees Fahrenheit, with 0% chance of precipitation. With the unusual warm weather, I noticed more phenophase action than the week before. Both of our plants were showing more breaking leaf buds, between 101-1,000! You can visibly see pink and green tips starting the leaf out. They are not considered increasing leaf size because the leaf hasn't grown enough to unfold or expose the stalk (petiole) or leaf base. Both shrubs also had a few increasing leaf sizes (<25%) where they are showing leaves but not to their full potential. Less than 5% of the canopy cover was full of leaves. One of our shrubs was still showing colored leaves (<5%) from an environmental stressor, which was most likely shock from cold weather. Both shrubs had more than 1,000 fruits present, and all of them were ripe (>95%) that had not dropped from the previous growing season. There are still no flower buds present on either Multiflora rose. Hopefully with the continuing warm weather, more and more leaf buds will break open and we'll have flower buds pop up. (Post by L.
