I have had 2 Mexican Bush Sages for years - one in a pot right next to one in the ground. They have been vigorous growers until recently when they started to have leaves discolor and branches die (photos attached). We pruned the one in the pot hoping it would bring it back to life. Too soon to tell.

Right next to the sage are the rose bushes, which have been there for years and have always been healthy. They are also now suffering. Some of the leaves are fine while others are puckering, and becoming misshapen (photos attached).

I\'m not sure if the two ailments are related or just complete coincidence. I was thinking with the drought, it might be insufficient watering but have a sense that it is something else. Thank you in advance for all identification, thoughts and suggestions!
