Madame,
You may want to look at some of the organic anti-fungals/blackspot remedies
on this page - http://gardengal.net/page11.html
A must buy for any rose fancier who doesn't want to engage in prolonged toxic
warfare is the "Rodale Organic Gardening Basics: Roses" (ISBN
0-875160839-2) booklet which lists for about 15 bucks of can be found
discounted few a few web sources.
Some Clinton Community Garden rose fanciers like the Cornell University
mixture included on this page. I can't vouch for the others and trust other
rose growers on this list will contribute.
We tend to follow good organic practices and have found that intelligent soil
amendments (and good composting practices) helps keep many different plant
blight down to a minimum for us.
Good luck!
