Rose Mosaic Virus?

12 years ago

This might be a silly question

One of the older climbing roses in mom's yard that I have been trying to nurse back to health has leaves with odd color patterns on them.

Of course thinking the worst I am looking at rose diseases and see this one, but....I think I might have caused the odd patterns using a dormant oil too late after striping and pruning them earlier this year. It seems like more of the leaves that would have been on the canes as tiny bumps are the leaves that are the most discolored.

Could that be the cause? I really do not remember ever seeing any odd coloration on them in the past, but I also think the Maybe Dr Huey was covering up most of this other rose.
