Thanks Michele for the advice. For some reason, I thought Immunox was a contact
spray. So, no I didn't know everything I have is systemic except for Daconil. Thanks
again.

Our winter, unless it is way milder than this past year, will kill rust. I hate chemical sprays,
and I do mean Hate, but I don't want to lose these plants, so I do what I feel is
necessary to keep them alive. It is a long time before winter, and with the autumn temps rust
will really get bad.

All eleven in this shipment have rust. I have them kind of contained in a makeshift tent, but
rust did spread to some seedlings and a few registered plants nearby before I realized what was going on. I wouldn't call this a heavy infestation, but it may be later. I have another shipment that is in quarantine in pots. They have not shown any sign of disease at all. The affected plants are in the ground, not pots. Our temps have been 88-92 degrees the past
week or so, and signs of rust have nearly disappeared. But I know it is still lurking there.
