Just thought I’d share this pic of Rose galls – presumably from a gall wasp. Enjoy!

Hi Barbara,
After a bit of research, we believe these Galls to be either the Spiny Rose Gall, Diplolepis bicolor, or another related rose leaf gall, Diplolepis polita, and not the picturesque Robin’s Pincushion, Diplolepis rosae.
