Re: Blackspot Control // was Welcome to the world of Roses.

Linda,

This is what I do also (though I use Daconil).  I find if I can keep the
leaves protected during the spring, I don't normally see any blackspot
during the summer months, and if I do, I can usually keep it under
control by picking the infected leaves as I find them.  If I need to
spray at all during the summer months, I use Funginex, as there is less
leaf burn during the hot months of summer than there is with Daconil.
