Tea Roses – Holes And Brown Sticky
Q: Something is eating holes in the buds of my hybrid tea roses, and there is a brown, sticky substance leaking from the holes.
A: Various caterpillars bore into rose buds at this time of year. Sticky sap oozes from the wounds. They can be controlled with organic sprays that contain Bacillus thuringiensis or spinosad.
