Fertilome Weed Free Zone will very likely injure/kill the rose plant. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer (VPG) directly for more information/tips at 855-270-4776.
We apologize but we are unsure if an application of Fertilome Weed Free Zone, or any herbicide application, would be safe. Any type of flower would be susceptible to the herbicide being absorbed and harming it along with any weeds you sprayed. If there is no crocus leaf tissue showing or growing above ground to come into direct contact with the chemical, its possible they would be fine, we just could not say for sure.
Fertilome Weed Free Zone will not harm Kentucky Bluegrass, Perennial Ryegrass, Tall Fescue, Red Fescue, Colonial Bentgrass, Common Bermuda Grass, Hybrid Bermuda Grass, Bahia Grass, Zoysia Grass, Buffalo Grass, St. Augustine and Centipede Grasses if used as directed.
No, you should not spray Fertilome Weed Free Zone over your jasmine, as the product label states, "Do not allow spray to drift onto vegetables, flowers, ornamental plants, shrubs, trees and other desirable plants since injury may result."

Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone is fast acting with noticeable effects just hours after the application and plants death within 7-14 days after the application.

A surfactant increases the absorption, translocation and sticking of insecticides, herbicides, fungicides and liquid fertilizers on plants. Many weeds have a waxy cuticle on the leaves/foliage/stem surfaces that will affect the herbicide application from aborbing thoroughly, the surfactant works as a “sticking agent” to prevent that.
Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone does not mention the use of a surfactant on the product label so we would not recommend to use one. Not all herbicides require a surfactant as they can already contain a slight amount or adding one could reduce selectivity on turf and injure your grass.
Fertilome Weed Free Zone is effective on a variety of broadleaf weeds. We recommend reviewing the product label to ensure it will kill the weeds you are dealing with. In order for the product to be safe, we recommend keeping children and pets out of the area while making an application and let it all completely dry before letting them back outside to play. Once dry it is safe, but like humans, pets can react/become sensitive to different things, we recommend keeping an eye on your pet and consulting your vet if needed. You can reapply Weed Free Zone after 30 days if needed for additional weed control. Going forward, do not mow within 2 days of your herbicide application for best results and the best safety on your turfgrass.
Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone is not going to affect poa annua at all as it is only for broadleaf weeds, no grasses.
Unfortunately, there is not a way to know if the grass is going to be okay other than time to see if the until it is grows again after over applying Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone. The only way to reverse an herbicide is with activated charcoal within hours of application.
Per VPG, Fertilome Weed Free Zone can be used on annual ryegrass. If you have already overseeded though, you will need to wait until you've mowed the new grass at least 3 times before you make an application.
The label for Ferti-Lome Weed Free Zone states not to allow spray drift onto vegetables, flowers, ornamental plants, shrubs, trees and other desirable plants since injury may result. It is only meant to be used on turfgrass areas. For broadleaf weed control in flower beds it is best to hand pull from this area or very carefully spot treat with a non selective herbicide avoiding any contact with desirables.
You will need to wait 2 weeks after applying Ferti-lome Weed Free Zone to seed.
