I have a new coral honeysuckle with powdery mildew, and three mini rose bushes with what I htink is black spot. Any tips on managing this would be appreciated :)

Black Spot
Common name of fungal leaf spot that attacks the foliage of plants such as roses. There is usually a yellow halo around the dark spot, then the entire leaf turns yellow and ultimately die. Best controls include selection of resistant plants and the use of baking soda spray. Severe cases cause leaves to drop. Plant resistant cultivars, and compost all dropped leaves and trimmings. Mulch bare soil to prevent dirt and spores from being splashed up onto plants. Apply horticultural cornmeal to the soil and spray Garrett Juice with potassium bicarbonate.

All of this information is available on this website under "information Center" from the home page.

Thanks for thr answer- I finally found the info I was needing on the site. Does this spray seem to work really well? How effective is it? I hate to lose these plants!
