I wonder if lots and lots of rain mechanically erodes the leaf cuticle which
makes it easier for bacteria and fungi to get started?
>From what the extension plant pathologist told us, I think leaf spots are
usually from a fungus - not a serious threat to the whole plant. If the dead
tissue has a yellow halo, that's bacteria, from what she said. Does that
match experience of other people? My poor iris look absolutely awful right
now - too bad to even try to clean up. 3 inches of rain in the last two
days.... not as bad as Ohio from what I see on the weather news.
my two louisianas look good!
