Rosa 'de Rescht'
''Rosa'' 'de Rescht is a Portland Damask rose introduced by English gardener Nancy Lindsay in 1945. In the first part of her book ''The Genus Rosa'', Ellen Willmott described a rose that is known by the Gilaks as "Gul e Reschti", which is probably the same as Rose de Rescht. History The history of the flower is unclear and its origin is unknown; according to some researches done in France and England by the members of the WFRS Specialized Conservation Committee, the rose was originally introduced "about 1880" as a Persian rose and, in some sources, its origin is French. It seems that this rose originating in Iran was reported in the year 1880 in England, then in the year 1890 in Germany, but it was then forgotten and was not reintroduced to England until 1940–1950, when it was rediscovered in Rasht. Description ''Rosa'' de Rescht's bloom form is double, their color is deep pink (dp) and they are highly fragrant. The plant has large, medium green foliage, grows about 90 to ...

Deep Pink
Pink colors are usually light or desaturated shades of reds, roses, and magentas which are created on computer and television screens using the RGB color model and in printing with the CMYK color model. As such, it is an arbitrary classification of color. Below is a list of some of the common pink colors. Web colors Pink Displayed here is the web color pink. Light pink Displayed here is the web color light pink. The name of the web color is written as "lightpink" (no space) in HTML for computer display. Although this color is called "light pink", as can be ascertained by inspecting its hex code, it is actually a slightly deeper, not a lighter, tint of pink than the color pink itself. A more accurate name for it in terms of traditional color nomenclature would therefore be ''medium light pink''. Displayed here is the web color hot pink. The name of the web color is written as "hotpink" (no space) in HTML for computer display. This shade of pink, along w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Black Spot (disease)
''Diplocarpon rosae'' is a fungus that creates the rose black spot disease. Because it was observed by people of various countries around the same time (around 1830), the nomenclature for the fungus varied with about 25 different names. The asexual stage is now known to be '' Marssonina rosae'', while the sexual and most common stage is known as ''Diplocarpon rosae''. ''Diplocarpon rosae'' grows over seasons as mycelia, ascospores, and conidia in infected leaves and canes. In the spring during moist, humid conditions, ascospores and conidia are wind-borne and rain-splashed to newly emerging leaf tissue. Diagnosis The black spots are circular with a perforated edge, and reach a diameter of . Badly affected plants, however, will not show the circular patterning, as they combine to cause a large, black mass. The common treatment of the disease is to remove the affected leaves and spray with antifungal solutions. Some stems of the roses may become affected if untreated, and will cau ...

Mildew
Mildew is a form of fungus. It is distinguished from its closely related counterpart, mold, largely by its colour: molds appear in shades of black, blue, red, and green, whereas mildew is white. It appears as a thin, superficial growth consisting of minute hyphae (fungal filaments) produced especially on living plants or organic matter such as wood, paper or leather. Both mold and mildew produce distinct offensive odours, and both have been identified as the cause of certain human ailments. In horticulture, mildews are species of fungus in the order Erysiphales, or fungus-like organisms in the family '' Peronosporaceae''. It is also used more generally to mean mold growth. In Old English, mildew meant honeydew (a substance secreted by aphids on leaves, formerly thought to distill from the air like dew), and later came to mean mold or fungus. Household varieties The term mildew is often used generically to refer to mold growth, usually with a flat growth habit. Molds can ...
