Help identify my rose problem

Hi everyone

I have a well established climbing rose which I cut back hard last season. It produced a couple of blooms in Spring but nothing since. I fed it couple of weeks ago and there is strong new growth but the leaves have something wrong - I'm not sure what and there are no new buds. Attached are a couple of pics of the leaves. I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I planted a couple of tree peonies close to the rose last year and they developed some sort of blight. Could that have transferred to the rose?

Many thanks for any comments

 

Wiseowl -Thank you for your comment and apologies for not responding sooner - been a hectic few days. The rose in question is about 10 years old and I couldn't spot any pests. But that said, none of my roses are flowering - possibly cutting back too hard as some of them are only a year old. They are all growing tremendously - just no flowers. I think I need to wait until next summer to see what happens. Perhaps I shouldn't cut them back this year?

 

You tried to feed it with something?

 

Wiseowl - thank you. I will everything alone and fingers crossed, we will get flowers next year. I assumed it is a climber as it has grown about 3 metres since the beginning of the season.

 

Hi there

I'm definitely no rose expert but I can tell you that the oval holes in the 3rd picture are probably caused by leaf cutter Bees.

 

If they are bees, then I guess trying to kill them isn't an option?

 

Absolutely not, they are protected.

 

They won't cause long term harm to your rose Monsclara,
