That's hard to say for sure. I would not use it. I'd say you're taking a risk applying that. The wrong kind of oils can suffocate your plants. You are much much better off just going to your local hardware/garden store and getting some products made specifically for roses/tomatoes. There are plenty of neem oils and/or cotton seed oils available that are inexpensive. Why not just use those. If a few applications of neem oil don't cut it, just get a few ML's of florimite from your hydro store.

Garlic powder in a liquid also has the added benefit of being a deer repellent (to an extent, if the deer are desperate it won't stop them)
