Anybody out there had any luck fighting rust on roses? It's come back for four or five years now. Doesn't kill the plants, but does look nasty. I pick off affected leaves, but that leaves some of the plants practically bare.

I've never heard of that before [but then again, I'm no gardener], so I decided to Google it.

This site seems to give a few good tips to help control it.

Thanks for the link Aleasha. The baking soda mixture is something I haven't tried, so I'll give it a go. I haven't had much luck with any of the chemicals I've used and if I can try something a bit less harmful for the environment that would be great. Fingers crossed.
