Bruce, it is also called Red Spot disease, and all Amarylids are prone to it. But you are in good company not knowing what it is, as I have asked Bunnings, and Mitre 10, and a horticultural store, and none have ever heard of it. Also emailed the big horticultural chemical suppliers, one at least could tell me it is a soil fungus. I have no idea if he is right. The horticultural suppliers looked it up online, and guess what, they came up with the PBS Wiki where it says how to deal with it! Havea look at the Wiki yourself, there are photos of it. Hence now I am pursuing by asking PBS people, and so far it is very helpful. Ina Ina Crossley Auckland New Zealand zone 10a On 8/12/2013 11:02 a.m., Bruce Schroder wrote: > What on earth is this?
