You may have thrips or rose midges. Both these insects will damage your rose buds so that they die and dry up. Knock a bud onto a white piece of paper and if there are very tiny fly like insects then they will be thrips. Cut open a bud and if you see tiny white maggots inside then they will be rose midges. Both can be cured with an insecticidal spray.
