surely to goodness somebody must know the answer as to why rosella plants wilt all of a sudden,It is nice to see all the qustions mentioning the various stages of wilting all of a sudden.this is all very well and good to know that I am not the only one this is happening to.Where are all the answers.Surely their must be some experts with the solution to this problem.Or don't they want us to know for some unknown reason? Surely some of the commercial growers must know.or do they have access to the cure that the home gardener is banned from using such as fruit fly prevention etc.it is very frustrating not to know the reason why this is happening.i am trying Yates Root Rot prevention at the moment.am I on the right track?

There are no experts on this website I'm sorry to say. I'm just a home gardener trying to help genuine people. I grew parsley a few years ago and about this time of year it just died in the space of a week, very healthy plant to brown in a few days. When I have a problem I go looking on the internet. Ring up your state government agricultural department. Agricultural supply companies.
