| Picture #3 appears to be cercospora spot disease, usually not a big deal. I don't know about the rest of it, but if this were my plant, I would ignore it. |

| Some of it looks like the mechanical damage that occurs when roses thorn each other. If potted roses were packed tightly together on a pallet, some foliage would be thorned by the adjacent roses. I see this type of damage after thunderstorms with strong winds. |
