Worms! didnt know Worms ate Roses:/

probably should have said caterpillars.. see it on the left bud.. the black spot is the head

I have tons of these this year too - for the first time! Maybe our poor spring?

We had these last year so at least this year I know what I'm looking for. They really blend well into whatever they're on. I can only squish so many.. might have to take more drastic action
