I have noticed today one of my rose plants is turning dry it was all ok till yesterday. Several leafs have their corners cut in a semi circular shape. Is it a leafcutter attack or something else. Please do tell me how can i cure my plants. Pictures are attached for the identification purpose.

Have you made a close observation to see if there's anything on leaves? Btw spare my ignorance, I grab a spray bottle the moment I see anything like this on leaves without even inquiring what exactly is the problem.It always worked fine though.

This is exactly why I asked dak about inquiring the leaves.Caterpillars are easiest to get rid of than tiny lil bugs n flies:0) the tinier the trickier :0)

yes i tried to figure out if theres something on the leaves but couldnt see any thing. Moreover these plants face sun throug out the day because they are on terrace. what product do you spray to stay caterpillars away from your roses.

i gree with Adnan it can also be sun burn as the temp is raising high day by day.for caterpillers u can use Bayers Bellet 48% sp.it will kill all types of caterpillers Inshallah.
