Can't find Product

The Lowes I checked didn't have the Bayer Rose & Flower Spray. Has anyone in S. Ontario actually found this product?

I had the same problem yesterday at walmart. I ended up buying fungicide 3 by shultz, it was the only thing they had.

What I've been told is that any product safe for roses is safe for orchids. I forget what I'm using, but it's one of those Ortho "safe for roses" systemics. Does no harm whatever to orchids, including catts, oncids and phals, even as a drench.

Not true. There are no absolutes like "any product safe for one thing is safe for another." One of the problems with this is that while pretty much all roses are fundamentally the same, not all orchids are the same. Even a chemical that is safe on one orchid can kill another. Best to avoid these kinds of overgeneralizations.
