Hi
@Sooby &
@dyzzypyxxy,
I can honestly say that I have been very good about cleaning up dead leaves. I go out on my walk every morning and pick up dead debris around all of my plants, not just the roses. I've had to deal with several fungus issues this summer, so garden hygiene is on the top of my list. And, I only water at the roots to avoid splashing water; I am a reformed sprinkler user now as well!
Sue, I can't remember the name of this rose since I purchased it so long ago, but I would be willing to bet that I cut off too much when I moved the rose. I think I will take the day tomorrow to peel off all the infected leaves and then just leave the canes. Perhaps next year I will be rewarded with blossoms once again, at least I hope so. I need to apply the same fixes to my Julia Child rose and my Wild Blue Yonder. They are both fighting black spot as well - way on the other side of the garden.
Elaine, I have been a member for a while with my location etc. all filled in. I am wondering if I entered my question without being logged in, i.e. I posted my question as a visitor maybe?
Thanks again, so much! Terri
