Beautiful Mottled Rose Leaf = Dreaded Black-Spot Fungus!

This leaf was with a few others which were beginning to show their fall colors. I am a hopeless junkie for pretty leaves like these--they really are like leaf "flowers" to me! :)

Thanks to Pam and Art for letting me know that this is a terrible malady in roses. A shame, it's so beautiful!!!

I'm thinking that I may try to get pretty fall leaves from all the different plants I can this fall, it would be a fun project if I can fit it into my schedule! :)
