Is This Rose Rosette Virus?

Question

I just planted these roses I bought from Lowes about three weeks ago and all of them have leaves and stalks turning red. Do they have a virus?

Answer 1

I would wait for more symptoms of rose rosette before diagnosing. The new growth on many roses is reddish.
