I have not experienced the problem that you mention with leaves looking like lace. I think that you will need to identify the culprit in action (probably some sort of bug). My roses are starting to look a bit bare now that the first blossom has come to an end. Luckily they are a repeat flowering variety so I shall give them a good feed and look forward to the next blooms. Thank you for your comment!

I am also the proud caretaker of David Austin English roses, "The Prince and Abraham Darby. The smell of English roses are wonderful and they grow very well in Washington State, USA. This year though, something is making the leaves look like lace. I am not sure what to do about this and am afraid they will stop blooming...do you have any suggestions? Thanks!
