Diseased buxus

Posted by John Davies on September 1, 2011 at 6:52pm in Pesticides

Hi All

 

I've planted three buxus domes which all seem to be suffering from the same symptoms. Picture attached and wondering if this is leaf spot or the dreaded blight?

    Hi Gaynor, I like your positivity. There's me imagining the worst. The whole area is irrigated and indeed there are irrigation lines to the buxus domes, so I think that the problem might actually be too much water?? I'm inclined to get the irrigation to this area turned off and see what happens. Do you think I should clip the affected areas or just leave for now?
