Ok my decision is taken , after 3 years of fight with black spot on my Abraham Darby , I decide to remove it from my garden . I am going with a no spray garden rose and this is a black spot magnet ! Very sad because I loved it flowers and fragrance but I am happy I took this decision . I will replace it with Princesse Charlene de Monaco , which is as beautiful and never have black spot and has a very good fragrance .

Maybe that's my favourite English Rose. I have a two-years old plant (on R. multiflora rootstock) grown in a 7-gallon container in a full-sun position. It forms a dense, short shrub. Stems are armed with large, red thorns. Very attractive dense, glossy leaves. Very continuously flowering, flower quality is OK in a rainy summer with almost no maintenance. Exceptional large, splendid, fragrant flowers with tender yellowish-pink color. Susceptible to blackspot but mended quickly when sprayed. Very vigorous growth but seems difficult to form a climber.

Dear Mingwei , what type of spray do you used to control black spot on Abraham Darby ? Because mine is always full of black spot all the time . Thanks in advance for your help.

I have several Laguna climbers along south facing wall. The blooms are among my favorite in terms of form and fragrance. These bushes survived harsh spring weather over 4 years 2013 to 2016 but the weather did reduce blooming. The leaves are glossy and resist leaf disease; thorns are sharp. One of the best of the Kordes roses that I grow.
