Red Twig Dogwood #888902

Asked October 28, 2024, 1:26 PM EDT

Hello! Thank you for all your help with previous questions  I certainly appreciate you! My red twig dogwood's leaves are covered with these black spots. What is it and is there anything I need to do to it?

Hi Marybeth,

We are unable to see the spots on the leaves in the pictures you sent us.  The camera resolution is too low - only 240x320. Look into your camera settings and see if you can't increase the photo file size (~3MB) and send us some new images. Inlclude closeups of the leaves and a picture of the entire bush.

At this time of the year leaves become subject to fungi and deterioration before leaf drop.  It may not be anything to worry about.

We look forward to seeing the pictures so that we can be sure that any recommendations we might make are based on the best evidence available.
