Re: tops


My impression from reading the post is that just the top of the individual
rose bud itself is being sliced off, almost as if someone did indeed come
along with a pair of scissors and cut the bud in half.  I've seen that
numerous times on my roses, and I'm fairly certain it's the work of a
grasshopper.
