I was flustered for a minute, but then I remembered DH did kill some crabgrass near there. It was several weeks ago, maybe 3 or 4 weeks. Whole plant:

Some of the new growth from the side.

If this isn't what you had in mind , please let me know. It's so little it's hard to get pictures of it.

This is a hard one The first pic being the worst of the group. The 2nd and 3rd pics at present the leaves seem to be filling out in a reasonable amount of time. Can't see thorns on those like the first pic. Are your leaves symmetrical so if you bend them in half both sides are the same. However if buds are deformed, lacking color or too much growth development thats is out of normal order. That something to keep a watch on. Can you take any more pictures May be cut out a piece of the bad growth to photograph.

First pic almost looks like herbicide damage. Is this a separate cane from the rest? Rrd will tend to start in one cane of your bush first. I have seen the type of growth in your 2nd and 3rd pics on my roses and every thing was fine. But I had no unusual thorns or buds.

You posted more pics while I was typing . Second and third pics look good in the last set of pics. Top in last set don't know yet if you have unusual thorns or lateral breaks can those be photographed.

That does look like herbicide damage. I've had it in my yard. You can cut off the offending growth, it will probably not bloom.

Oh thank goodness! No wonder why I didn't get any results when I searched RRD vs. Fertilizer, should have searched herbicide but I totally forgot it was used near then since we don't usually use it at all.

THANK YOU ALL for replying!

In the photos so far nothing looks like rrd unless theres something I can't see. Agree looks like herbicide damage in photo one of third set of pics.

Also explain to your DH that Round-Up can drift up to 30 ft or more, so it would not even have to be close to cause damage. Grass B Gone is a safer alternative for around roses. You can even spray it on the roses and it will not hurt them.
