My daughter's variegated liriope has spots all over it. Doing some research, the two most common issues are Anthracnose and root rot. None of the pictures I saw of those issues looked exactly like my daughter's issue, though the description seemed a little like Anthracnose. Can you tell me what it is and what we should do about it please?
If it's Anthracnose, Clemson says to get rid of the debris and put a fungicide on the new growth as a protective measure. Does that mean just cut back the damaged leaves or does it mean digging up and getting rid of the plants? And if we should use a fungicide, is there one your recommend (not necesarily a brand, but what should we look for)?
