What can I use to control blackspot on roses?


Our Advice:

Sprays of Systemic Fungus Control from Doff or Fungus Fighter Plus from Bayer appear to give good control. Aim to get a protective layer over the leaves before the disease becomes established. Spray the soil and any support structure to kill fungal spores hiding there.
