I noticed what appears to be a couple of Inflo's on my Plumeria today and when I went over to take a closer look something else caught my eye; Plumeria Rust!!%#@&! Grumbling

I've never had this problem; I'd never even seen it before but after googling and doing some research I know it's Plumeria Rust. We've had a lot of rain, heat and humidity lately which is probably the cause. I need advice fast; my thinking is that I should de-leaf the entire plant and use some type of fungicide on it? I really hate to throw my one and only Plumeria tree in the trash. Help please, pretty much every leaf is covered in this awful stuff. I hate using chemicals; does anyone have suggestions on a natural fungicide that might work? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
