My grand aunt in Anoka area has a climbing rose bush that’s leaves are browning. What might be the cause and how to fix it? Thank you!

Expert Response

It looks like damage from Roseslug. Information on these sawflies is in the link I am giving you. But look at the other possibilities. Are there canes dying? I cannot tell from your photos but look at the rose stem girdler section also. http://www.extension.umn.edu/garden/diagnose/plant/annualperennial/roses/leavesdiscolored.html
