Hi all. I have just found out why the leaves on my Pyrachanta have red spots and/or turning red. The plant has gotten Entomosporium leaf spot, presumably from all the rain we've had. Does anyone here know of any organic fungicides I can use to treat my plant? I read online that chlorothalonil can kill the fungus but I see that this has been banned in Ireland. Of course now that I've found out what it is, I need a dry day in which to prune off the infected leaves. There's a lot of rain forecast for the next few days unfortunately.
Has anyone else had this problem, and how do you prevent it happening again? I think I've caught it early enough but I need to get busy fixing my plant.
