The Black Spot:

Black spots can be found on the edges of the leaves as well as the stem of your roses. This is a fungus that can harm your precious plant, causing leaves to fall off and the plant to become almost bare. Some varieties of roses are less likely to have this happen to them. Ensure that fallen leaves have been removed from the location while watering the plants without splashing water on the leaves. 

Rust:

Discoloration can occur caused by rust. It normally happens to older leaves first and then spreads throughout the entire plant. To prevent this condition from striking your roses, keep the leaves dry. Water the ground around the plant not necessarily on the leaves of the roses. Water during the day time when there is time for the leaves to dry and also allow for proper air circulation around the plant by keeping surrounding plants pruned properly.
