How do I get rid the black spots on the leaves of my Christmas rose?

Our Advice:

This is hellebore leaf spot, a fungus similar to grey mould. It is in the soil and often spread by water splashes. Trim off all of the affected leaves and as the new leaves start to emerge spray with Fungus Fighter Plus from Bayer or Rosegarde from Vitax to keep the plants free from infection.
