Will they grow back? by Mary Ann http://www.asktheplantlady.com/i-accidentally-indirectly-sprayed-perennials-with-weed-killer-now-the-flowers-are-dead-will-they-grow-back/comment-page-1/#comment-58193 Mary Ann Mon, 12 Jul 2010 04:18:52 +0000 http://www.asktheplantlady.com/10011/i-accidentally-indirectly-sprayed-perennials-with-weed-killer-now-the-flowers-are-dead-will-they-grow-back/#comment-58193 The nasty old woman that lives next door to me loves to spray my plants with weed killer. I've lost several rose bushes over the past two years because I cannot catch her in the act. She just recently sprayed a rose tree that bloomed once this season. The leaves are dead but there is some green left on the stems. Can this tree be saved? What do I need to do to save it. If it can be saved I will be moving it to the front where she will be caught if she comes near it. Right now it is in the back yard. Thank you!

We left the soil from last summer in two window boxes and several planters and this year they are filled with full, blooming petunias. We didn\'t have to add a single new plant to fill the containers. Our Petunias grew back this year on their own.

Since I have never seen them peeing how can I stop this? Someone suggested putting Jalapeno pepper powder on the plants and planter to make it uncomfortable for the dog? Will this work?
