What do I do? My apple tree has got black spots that are getting bigger? Can I spray it with something? Thanks

    I think if you put more compost in the pot, the plant will be more healthy and will be able to fight off what sounds like black spot. Any really badly damaged leaves can be picked off . Don't put them on the compost heap.

    I would say that the rose is suffering, therefore getting sick.  Too little compost, unable to get enough water and nutrients

    So I put more compost in the pot covering more of the stem?
