I lost all my hedges to this leaf spot disease, once you have it its game over, any treatments just delay the inevitable. I had an escallonia hedge which went that way. I replaced it with pittosporum, and now several of those bushes seem to be going the same way: black spots on the leaves, severe leaf loss and die-back. Does the escallonia leaf spot disease also effect pittosporums, do you know, Charlie? -- Chris Gardening in West Cornwall overlooking the sea. Mild, but very exposed to salt gales Not heard of that happening, is it something that has only happened this year or did occur before and just get worse this year? I ask because we have had numerous un explained casualties this year which we think may have been the timing of the various weather we have had, Things like a 30 year old Norway Maple and 30 year old Hawthorn both have died this summer but showed signs of ill health in the spring. It could just be that the conditions have suited sudden Oak death or Honey Fungus but a lot of damage was caused on just one night by that sudden frost just as everything was coming into leaf, next day all was black and hanging and some stuff never recovered -- Charlie, Gardening in Cornwall Holders of National Collections of Clematis viticella and Lapageria rosea cvs http://www.roselandhouse.co.uk |
