This rose is susceptible for Pseudoperonospora sparsa, or false mildew.

Jay-Jay is referring to downy mildew see http://www.rose.org/rose-care-articles/downy-mildew/

You're right Sutekesh, I chose to use the Latin name, for else I only could translate the Dutch "Valse Meeldauw"; to False Mildew", but it of-course is Downy Mildew!
Stems get purplish-blueish spots, that expand and the next year those canes/stems die.
The leafs get at the underside a grayish layer, the leaves rot or dry depending the weather and fall off!

Best MKGarden, You're welcome,

Which job on YouTube?
I'm not aware of doing anything on YouTube. That has to be a mix-up.

Best regards, Jay-Jay.

It had blackspot in my garden as well. It died last year after a very, very cold winter in zone 6/5.

The final blow indeed came from a very cold winter too over here.

This is the third season in my garden, Zone 6b Switzerland and already showing signs of black spot - again!! I am going to make a habit of reading the member comments and not just the main page in future.

A very good intention! Sometimes ratings are a hint too.

So the statement in the description, that this rose is "very blackspot-resistent", can be referred to the garbage bin... or to the land of the fairy-tales.

I have to spray fungicide on all of my Hybrid Teas and Floribunda's here in hot humid florida. I can grow old Teas, Noisettes and some shrubs here without spraying, but I will continue to spray my HT's and FL's twice a month for unique and beautiful flowers .

What brand do u use of fungicide

Reply #11 of 11 posted 27 FEB 20 by Matthew 0rwat
It depends, In the cooler months I mix Daconil and Propaconizole together in one spray tank and apply it twice a month. In warmer weather I rotate with either Immunox or Theophanate Methyl, or Propaconizole mixed with Dithane. Rotation is key so blackspot doesn't develop resistance. My spray period is March through October. If we go through a hot and dry period, I usually quit spraying for that time since the warm and dry weather naturally reduces disease. I don't spray my OGRs or Shrub roses and they do fine. This program is for picky hybrid teas, like Peace, Brandy, Papa Meilland. I can grow Mr. Lincoln or floribundas like Valentine without spraying but I love yellos and orange long stemmed HTs as well
