Default Powdery Mildew?

g'day david,

not sure about p.m on a perrenial type shrub but!

for me in the vege garden i fnd good drainage helps the plants roots
to be healthier thus a healthy plant and less chance of p.m also full
sun and breezy position help as does not watering the foliage, so with
this i get very little p.m.

there is a suggestion for using milk sprayed on the plants to conrol
p.m we have suggested recipe on our remedies page:
