Rose Bushes Turning Yellow

Question #1: My rosebushes had yellow spotted leaves last Fall so I cut them all down to the ground. Now one has started to grow back and looks healthy so far. Should I leave it alone and see what happens? Is it possible for the regrowth to be healthy?

Question #2: I have bag worms in a Bradford pear tree. What can I do to kill them and prevent them from coming back?

RE: Rose Bushes Turning Yellow

When you said spotted, it makes me think of "black spot". Remove ALL of the old leaves, even the ones on the ground.
I often use a 5 in 1 spray that I buy from Wal-Mart, and it works great, and covers more than one rose disease.
My sister in law uses I think sulfur in a spray bottle. I could be wrong on her spray bottle, but her's is much cheaper, and I'll be using it this year. Sorry, I can't help you with the pear tree.
