About Entomosporium

This fungal disease causes distinctive red to purple leaf spots with dark centers, primarily affecting photinia and other ornamental shrubs common in Middle Tennessee landscapes like Franklin and Brentwood. Favoring warm, wet conditions, Entomosporium can lead to premature leaf drop and weakened plants if untreated. Proper sanitation and timely fungicide applications help manage its spread in home gardens.
