Is this normal for a rose?

    Is the brown fraying around these rose petals normal? Water damage maybe. It's a DA rose which just arrived yesterday and otherwise looks very healthy but I don't want to miss an underlying disease. Thanks :-)

    Hi @Jannt86 , I wouldn't worry about it, it looks like it's had a bit of water damage.
    You say it just arrived yesterday was it boxed up and slightly damp?

    Hi Jann in that case I'd cut that open flower off and put in in the shade for a couple of days.
