BLACK SPOTS ON THE LEAVES 
OF ROSES 
This disease is one that seems to be well nigh universal 
wherever Roses are grown, although some varieties are more 
tender or less able to resist its inroad than some others. In 
our experience it develops more perceptibly during a spell 
of warm, humid weather, and this weather condition will 
quickly spread a few spots over half a leaf. The leaves first 
^ow a small black spot, which grows and grows fast in a day 
or two of humid weather; and sometimes the leaves of a bush 
will drop off so as to be perceptible. A Moss Rose will some- 
times seem to be struck with this trouble when a more common 
kind will show less. This Black Spot, which is called "Acti- 
nonema Rosae, " grows in the tissue of the leaves, and where 
Roses are grown, whether outdoors or in large or small green- 
houses, this trouble is apt to occur.
