I have two rose bushes with leaves covered in mildew. I've sprayed with fungicide, limited the watering and they are in an open area with good drainage and air circulation. Any Ideas on how to help them?

That's all you can do for now. Just keep up the good work and they come back. Just remember when you water to water in the morning and water only the roots. Roses hate to get wet, but sometimes it can't be helped. Watering early in the morning will give your roses a chance to dry their leaves if they get wet.
How old are your roses? Established roses a year or more don't even need to be watered unless it is really hot and dry. Your roses will let you know if they are thirsty by drooping a little.
