Note:
Antique Roses are also known as old garden
roses. Links below list where you can buy these. OGRs listed are fragrant
and disease hardy which has lead to revived popularity.

Note: Black spot is a serious problem in moist climates such as New Jersey. However, if you buy resistant bushes (OGRs often are), provide good air circulation, add compost, and spray with a fungicide (even occasional spraying after rain helps), your rose bushes will thrive. Black spot seems to be most rampant if the ground has no clean compost on it. I found adding new compost around bushes helped eliminate blackspot. In many municipalities, compost is free (a result of their picking up leaves in the fall). I add new mulch over the compost each month, cleaning up dead leaves that might harbor blackspot disease. The fungicide that I use is Daconil 2787. As an organic fungicide many rosarians recommend using baking soda mixed with a bit of detergent to make the soda stick to the leaves. Research shows that baking soda at 0.5% really works to kill blackspot--so I'm going to try that this year. |
