Any of you knowledgeable people know why a few of my outwardly healthy looking roses leaves have turned bright pink? One is half pink half green. Cheers

    Rather pretty,... matches the Dicentras in the background...

    just a bit of iron deficiency.. the rest of your plant looks fine... new growth like that would be darker, mahogany coloured.... nothing to worry about really...

    Many thanks -. It does look pretty 😀 what can I feed it to get iron. It’s had a good dose of manure earlier in the season?

    Really it's not worth bothering about... just pick off those little pink leaves if you don't want them... I think they're rather nice... the rest of your plant is perfectly healthy, so just a blip in this case.. a very minor deficiency and not worth correcting...
