Yes it's poisonous to plants as far as I understand and I've never heard of
it being used on roses. It's used on fruit trees when all the leaves are off
so they can't take it in. Do you normally use it on roses? It's something I
never thought of

Years ago, we bought some tar oil, that in fact we never used, after
reading a gardening magazine article recommending it for getting rid
of mold on rose plants.
