Growing to 30 cm (12 in) tall and broad, it is an evergreen shrub with leaves heavily-spotted pink or white, as if sprayed with paint. This small shrub with green foliage stained with pink-purple dots forms bushy and compact tufts. The leaves are opposite, oval and pointed. They are borne by petioles of 2 to 4 cm 1.
Small water-soaked lesions, maturing into sunken and brown spots with or without a yellow halo. May show concentric rings with purple margins. Necrotic tissue may fall out to appear shot-holed. Leaf spot on many plants and crops. Septoria: Small brown spots, that turns light tan to white in the centre. Leaf spot on many crops Bipolaris
Plants are rather pest-resistant, though can be affected by leaf spots or rust on occasion. Watering plants at the base, rather than overhead watering, can help prevent these foliar diseases.
Prolonged exposure to overspray of glyphosate will cause yellow leaves and new leaves will be small and elongated. Hormone weed sprays (e.g. 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T) may cause grotesque new growth with thin twisted leaves and distorted buds. Plants may die in severe cases.
As originally described in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus, Euphorbia maculata is an herbacous plant with small, oblong opposite leaves. The leaves are pilose, or covered in small thin hairs, and generally have a crenate (scalloped) edge. Each leaf is marked with a small brown spot in the center, giving the plant its common name. [7]
A raspberry leaf spot infection initially causes dark green circular spots on the upper side of young leaves, which will eventually turn tan or gray. [3] These spots are typically 1–2 millimetres (0.039–0.079 in) in diameter, but can get as big as 4–6 millimetres (0.16–0.24 in). [4] These spots can also fall out, causing a shot effect.
This disease affects strawberry plant foliage causing purple spots 1 ⁄ 8 to 1 ⁄ 4 in (3.2 to 6.4 mm) in diameter across on the upper side of the leaves. [3] At first, the whole spot is purple but as the disease matures the center of the leaf spots on older leaves become tan or gray, then almost white. Lesions on younger leaves remain light ...
Once on the leaves, the spores germinate and penetrate through the stoma. [2] The subsequent infection causes chlorosis of the leaves in localized yellow spots. As the season continues into summer, apothecia begin to form, giving rise to brown-black leaf lesions that resemble spots of tar. [2] Leaves retain their yellow border from the initial ...
