I recently shifted my roses from semi shade to full sun. Just before moving i also applied J Arthur rose food to them. Now they are in bad shape. What is the issue and how can i correct it? They were doing fine before i moved them.

Don,t worry its just the freezing effect in the night hours.Stop feeding specially N as it stimulates new growth which is much affected more with the freezing effect. i think frost has still to come in your city.

But i can see pests as well as powdery stuff on leaves. Should not i spray something? The freezing temps are yet to come in December. It is still not that cold in lahore.

IMHO its seems to be weather effect ie yellowing of old leaves and pests too ie cuts,holes and dark lining on back side of leaves.
Whats the composition of J Arther rose, specially quantity of Nitrogen?

NPK 5 - 5 - 10 + Trace elements including magnesium.

If new sprouting leaves are healthy and not wilted then there is no need to worry just remove these yellow and wilted leaves.

Yes i know its not that much cold.But you brought your roses out side so naturally its freezing shock.The bushes will shed the leaves & the buds will sprout.Roses in winter goes into dormancy.Don,t worry dear n don,t loose heart.

spider mites khabab bhai, no insecticide. wash every leaf underside. search net. usually they go away after washing.

t.I have just read Khabbab has written some pest & powder.Oberon is best for every type of Mites.Hamza you are a master now.
