Notes: Black spot on roses is a common disease throughout the country (Ellis (1952a); Marcussen
(1962); and Amos (1963) ). Heavy infection causing considerable defoliation in summer
seriously weakens the plants. The disease is important in commercial plantings. Sprays of
captan and folpex have been recommended for control of this disease.
