Just now I pulled up a 4" petty spurge (a frequent and several-times-daily
activity although I usually get them when they're smaller).

I noticed that on the underside of all the leaves were orange/brown
slightly
raised and crowded together spots.

Any idea?

Rust.

Is it transferable to other plants?

Dunno - I'm pretty sure there's more than one type of rust. I don't know
how species-specific any of them are.

Thanks, Kay. I wonder why it was only on tht plant though, there are/have
been lots of others of its ilk.
