The systemic I use is for nurseries. It's Cleary's 3336. You can't buy
it over the counter, and I don't think that it's for use by the general
public.
Besides, it leaves a white residue that can be unsightly. tho, in my
opinion, powdery mildew is none too attractive, either.
Isn't there any systemic fungicides fancied by rose growers? Geez, I'd
have thought they'd have that licked by now.
