Not that I can see, no. Can you take a pic of the underside of a leaf for me? It may be early stage, if at all. I added a link that describes symptoms of RRD, if you care to look.

Here is a link that might be useful: Rose Rosette

Healthy new growth.

Honestly, it looks okay to me. You aren't getting a proliferation of fast growing shoots or masses of thorny stalks, nor are you getting the tell-tale witches' broom new growth.

Thanks you.

I had a few leaves like that, too. It's hard not to panic, thinking is it the early, early stage of RRD that hasn't been documented? Sometimes I'll pull the leaves off. Maybe it's environmental or another insect or spider? I am glad you posted this question and I would like a definitive answer instead of my speculation.
