My mini rose was in a container indoors, and it started to get a powdery mold. I read I should take it outside to help get rid of the mold (I'm also using a spray for that), but now something is munching the leaves. Can anyone please tell me who the perpetrator is and how to get rid of him?

Hope you can see the picture below:

Don't know why I have issues showing pictures. [Razz] I can't even see the pictures myself when I'm on the computer at home!

Anyway, the leaves have large rounded sections eaten out. Two eaten sections on each leaf, one on each side of the main vein. Does this help explain? [dunno]

Zelinda....I see the pix now....some mysterious force must of been at work!

I have no idea....maybe a worm? I think grasshoppers leave more ragged edges???

Just wanted to let you know I see the pix and hopefully someone will know the answer.
