Heather,
Benlate(Benoyml) is the best if you can get it. They pulled it here in
California for ornamentals. Don't know the situation in PA. Daconil
2787 is good, and I think it should be available, and also a product
called Fore. If your spraying for leafspot on iris, cut the brown tips
before you spray and alternate fungicides so the fungus will not become
resistant.
