sounds like what vine weevils did to one stem on my rose. little critters have left terrible holes in leaves, which they did when i went on holiday but notice last night that they'd taken almost all buds off on one stem

only solution i believe is to pick em off by hand at night. and i'd do a search on this site for vine weevils and read previous posts for more info and hopefully pictures
