I burned some of my roses

Last week, after 10 days of incoming/outgoing/incoming company and getting ready to leave town, I did a quick "care visit" to my roses. I watered deeply the night before and then sprayed the next morning with Banner and Avid. (Spider mite infestation.) Then, that evening I sprayed with Bayer Rose and Flower Spray insecticide. (The Japanese Beetles are horrible.) Upon investigating yesterday when I returned to town, many of the leaves are burned and I recall seeing this in the past after spraying the Bayer. Previously, I had used Sevin.

It did get very hot last week. What did I do wrong? I'd appreciate any ideas.
