We planted 2 QE roses bareroot early May and they grew quite nicely to almost 2.5 ft thru summer but then leaves started showing holes- typical bugs eating them I found out. Also had aphids and ants all over. We didn't do a good job treating them.
Anyway long story short- almost all leaves have been eaten up- although stems look fine.
Question I have is will leaves anyway would have fallen off this Fall? And will I see new leaves sprouting come Spring? Similar to deciduous bushes?
Thank you for your help.
