NEW PLANT GOES IN

Nice choice, I have the Rhapsody in Blue rose my favourite :-)

I think it may still get black spot after all, I pulled a leaf off today with a bit of it on. Do you have much trouble with yours and if so how do you deal with it?

I do get a lot of black spot Bellflower, usually spray with rose clear 3(only chemical I did use and very careful with it, spraying in the evening when not so many insects around etc )and it worked brilliantly, but its been removed from sale this year, roses have been fine but quite a few are affected now, been looking for more natural solutions to try next year, apparently milk is good and cider vinegar mixed with water, can't remember exact measures offhand, I wrote it down somewhere, I'll see if I can find it :-)

Thanks Simbad, I might have to try those remedies, I hate to see a good rose ruined like that.
