So the first two pics are of the leaves, I'm worries that this poor plant has thrips or some sort of fungal infection It's my first rose from my bf of 2 months going strong, and I really want this rose to be strong too! šš½
I got this rose around September 10th, (maybe 9th) and within a day of putting it in a vase with honey (cuz I didn't have any flower cutting food), it grew roots unintentionally! That's why it became my mission to try to grow this into a stronger rose!
I gave it a good wash just now, but is there any chance to recover? Any tips or tricks or advice? I'm basically a beginner with only watching videos under my belt… My mom's the one with a green thumb!
Btw, the 3rd pick is of new growth and the 4th pick is of how the roots are going!
Oh! And the 5th pic is of me doing some research and then trimming off some of the leaves that I thought wasn't necessary and were taking the rose's priority away ššš½

The fourth picture is very concerning it terms of pestsā¦.the entire left side, can you upload a better photo!? But to me it definitely looks like thrips!??
Was that a rose? What kind?
That cutting looks pretty bad, if i were you I’d remove the obviously damage leaves. The bottom edge looks rot, touch it, should if feel firm but for me it looks mushy.
I don’t think the 4 pic shows roots but only fiber of a not clean cut.
