 Post subject: fungus on crape myrtle
PostPosted: Fri May 21, 2004 7:57 pm 
Is anybody else having a problem this season with a fungus on the new leaves of their crape myrtle? What can I use to kill it before it kills my tree?

Corn meal added to the surrounding soil and stirred in will help considerably as well as a corn meal spray for the foliage.

As an extreme solution you might cut down the tree you have now and get one of the mildew resistant brands. What a relief to not bother with that any more.

We have some research now showing that garlic tea also works well.
