Orange rust on plumeria - Kiana - 05-26-2017
Anyone have tips for treating the horrible orange rust that gets on the plumeria? I've tried hand picking the leaves at the earliest sign, diligently, to no avail. Have not learned of any type of topical treatment that helps.
We have a beauty under out eave in a large pot, so it stays dry and blooms nicely. The nursery said it was a dwarf variety, so it does well in the pot. We love her; it's so nice to have the blooms. We also have a standard size variety out in the yard, the pretty maroon and orange one. It gets the same rust.
Mahalo for any ideas or suggestions!

Mahalo Cagary for the link.
I imagine Garden Exchange would be a good place to purchase the fungicide they recommend.
