Most people are overwhelmed by the prospect of rose gardening. It is widely acknowledged that diseases are amongst the most familiar hindrances to the gardening of roses. Rose plants are commonly infected by the Georgia black spot disease. Actually, the black spots can be detected only on the rose plants. The disease is characterized by unsightly black spots that occur all over the rose bush and will ultimately result in the falling of leaves. The disease can be transmitted from one rose plant to another.

Nevertheless, this should not put you off rose gardening. The Georgia black spot disease can be checked and treated. To see that your rose plants are not affected by black spots, you should make sure that the rose plants are at a suitable distance from each other. This is extremely crucial to gardening - the Georgia black spot disease prospers in areas where the flow of air between rose plants is far from adequate.

A further way of averting black spots is to be cautious while watering the rose plants. The most favorable time for watering roses is in the early hours of the day. The Georgia black spot disease flourishes in damp conditions. The watering of roses late in the evening leads to water retention in the absence of evaporation, thus giving rise to the development of fungus and mildew.

However, in spite of all your best efforts, you find that the rose bushes are infected with black spots, you can have your plants carefully treated and the fungus destroyed. In the first place, strip the plant of all its leaves that are infected by the spots as this will ensure that the fungus does not spread any further.

Then, you need to have your garden treated to make sure that black spots no longer break out on the leaves. Every single leaf of every single rose bush needs to be treated since black spots can spread like crazy. You can pick up products that are expressly made to handle such an eventuality in rose gardening. The local garden center supplies products that can help treat the Georgia black spot disease.

Alternatively, the below stated procedure can be used to create an organic concoction that eliminates all signs of black spots. This concoction will destroy black spots without the need to use fungicides that have an unfavorable effect on the environmental surroundings.

Fungicide for treating Black Spots and Mildew

Baking soda - 1tsp
Water - 1litre
Soap Flakes - 1tsp.

Method: Dissolve the baking soda in warm water of approx. one liter.

Put in the soap flakes to enable this solution to adhere to the leaves. Take out the diseased leaves from the rose plants and then squirt the solution on the upper and lower portion of the leaves remaining, to help check the spread of black spots.

Thus, this is the end to all your problems regarding the Georgia black spot disease. This disease in no way should stop you from growing gorgeous roses and enjoy their fragrance and beauty both in your home as well as in the garden. A small investment in time and effort are called for to enable you to keep from having to face this garden irritant ever again.
