I hate to remove the diseased cane as it is the only one remaining off the original yellow rose. I think these roses are quite old and were badly neglected. We had an unusually wet winter and much more snow and ice than we usually get. I also like the suggestion of adding a clematis to the mix so I'll try that. Time to start spraying fungicide again - perhaps a few extra doses won't hurt.
