@Cateyes856 Your roses will probably be fine - just look miserable until new growth comes in. Here is an additional trick you can try, that might also help. In a spray bottle, mix 1/2 milk, 1/2 water, a few drops of dish soap and a few drops of vinegar. Store the bottle in the fridge and spray the roses often - several times a week if you can. It's fine if the milk turns sour. This mixture will change the ph level on the rose leaves and make it very difficult for black spot to grow. I have used this method for about 10 years now, and it works very well in our hot, humid conditions here in Ohio. Happy rose growing!!! nodding
