Not been out in garden much over last few weeks and of course it’s been hot and dry. Just had a proper look. Gertrude Jekyll has been hammered with black spot, Margaret merrill’s not got a single leaf left and wedding day has dreadful mildew. It’s too big to spray. I’ve taken worse off Gertrude and sprayed but what shall I do about Margaret? Leave it?
I think it’s the drought. I don’t normally water them but I think they need more just now.
