What’s wrong with my mini rose?

The leaves look weird I can’t figure out what this plant needs #roses #MiniatureRose #PlantTherapy #OutdoorGrowing
16” pot with drainage

Hi! They hate getting wet leaves and need to be watered really consistently - this looks like too much water or that the leaves were really wet.
@RealSimpleMama you are right! I took it t out of the covered porch cause I thought it wanted more sun - then we had a rainy week. I took it back after I noticed that the flower buds got sunburned. I will keep it on the porch from now on. Should I prune it?
@RealSimpleMama do you know a lot about them? I fertilise with liquid miracle gro for roses once a month. Should use some other fertiliser?
@Artonina hi! That would should be fine as a fertilizer (and pruning is a good idea too, especially crispy growth and old blooms). You can also give them coffee grounds as they love the nitrogen! Roses can be heavy feeders meaning that they like a lot of fertilizer, but follow the instructions so you don’t burn them. 🌱☀️❤️
@RealSimpleMama I didn’t know about coffee ground, we have a lot of them! 🙏 thanks!
