White spots and holes on rose leaves
Comments (9)Rose slugs are chewing off the lower surface of the leaves, leaving the top membrane as a translucent white window. Just wipe them off with your thumb, or spray with spinosad. Buford, I'm surprised an experienced grower like you isn't familiar with these. Your own garden must have some magical power to repel sawflies....See MoreRose with pink/white/green variegated leaves
Comments (4)Or you have a rose with one of the variations of Rose Mosaic Virus. Usually roses with one kind of RMV have yellow zigzags; I've seen that zigzag pattern in pink twice: the first time was on several Dream roses ( Jerry Twomey's intros in the early 1990s) The roses weren't in bloom so I can't tell you which color had the pink zigzag. A couple of years later someone in Ohio spotted the pink zigzag on one of their Hybrid Teas.

Comments (22)Harrison, sounds like you have a H. Carnosa Krimson Queen. Here is a picture of mine. I've had her about 13 years, still small because she grows very slow. Good hoya this one is.

Now her leaves are getting dark green and looking healthier. This is a good hoya that is very easy to care for, just don't water too much during the winter and water 2X a week in the summer.

Comments (6)No, they will not change their variegation. Also, irises with yellow variegation are more robust, grow and multiply quicker and overall look healthier than the irises with white variegation. On the picture below, you can see 3 of my variegated irises: 2 with yellow stripes and one with white. Growing conditions are identical. But Yellow-striped are twice as big, 3 times more flowers and are pretty much ready to be divided by their third year while the white-variegated are somewhat dwarfish and a very mediocre bloomer:...See Moreamandahugg
