The plants start off good and strong in the early spring, but then the lower leaves get dark and mushy-looking and die back. Although it doesn't kill the plant, it does seem to set it back and keep it from thriving. We did have an excessively wet spring this year. Is it a fungus, or bug, or what? I would.like to be prepared next year if it's something I can treat. |
