Debra - What I did with mine is put a garbage bag over the rose, yanked it up, then shoveled the dirt into another garbage bag & tossed it away. I hate being wasteful like that.. 2 garbage bags in the landfill just for 1 rose! Not to mention the dirt.. but wasn't about to take any chances. We don't have RRD here and I'm planning on keeping my yard free of it.
