I've been cutting out the under branches of our* oak tree. Partly, this clears out space for walking. It also takes a bit of weight off the fence. This is my second week of filling the green bin with twigs and leaves. I expect to do this for a few weeks more

Remove the Rose leaves with black spot. It's the best control.

Certainly! I do both. When we first got here, removing all the diseased leaves would have meant plucking all of them.

I was relieved at your addenda about donated hair!

I have a lot of powdery mildew showing up in places on my dear rose bushes. I hate that stuff!
