Spring is here, and it is great to see all of the plants turning green again.  However, if you have noticed that your Indian Hawthorn's or Photinia's are not looking so healthy, you might have Entomosporium leaf spot.   Entomosporium leaf spot. is a fungus that attack's the leaves of the plant in wet conditions.  Since we have had a very wet winter, many of the Indian Hawthorn's and Photinias in the area have this fungus.  Leaf spot can be treated if caught early, but, if not, it is best to remove the infected plants and replace with something that is not susceptible to this fungus.
