I have planted about 4 roses not in the same place but almost in a
line. The leaves have dhrunk and become very tiny versions of the
original and I don't mean the root stock has taken over. People have
talked about energy lines etc??? Is this fanciful or is it something
completely different?
I don;t have s similar problem anywhere in the garden.

Have you used Glyphosate weedkiller nearby? If spray drifted onto the plant
it would screw up its metabolism and roses are notoriously sensitive to
glyphosate.
