Any suggestions for a good fungicide spray for black spot on roses?

Sue-
I've just used whatever they've got at HD and it's worked fine for me.

Here's some good information. Our weather is so conducive to blackspot (humid) that I grow only antique roses, which are resistant. And if they should get it, it doesn't kill them.

And here is an organic approach:

ceejay, do you know a good online source for those antique roses? Are they also called heirloom or is that something different? thanks

Probably the same thing. I get mine from the Antique Rose Emporium who also does mail order. They have a wonderful place and since I live only an hour and a half away, it is within my world. They are listed on DG http://davesgarden.com/products/gwd/c/67/
Great quality and they take care of their plants. And they know how to ship, too.

I am currently using a bonide product called infuse. I have 75 roses and it seems to be stopping the spread.
