Spots on petunia's?
« on: July 06, 2012, 12:48:08 PM »
Does anyone know hat would cause these spots on a new petunia bloom? All of the new blooms have this.

Thanks in advance,

Cheers,
Sean

Could be hot water damage (sun +H2O=BOILED) or bugs (slugs) taking advantage of your flowers.

I was going to say it looks like mildew to me - hard to tell in the picture really - it is listed in the link that Mikey posted.

The spots on my purple petunias look like spots of missisng color.  Some blooms have them and some don't.  I have wondered if the drops of water isn't the culprit.  I only water my pots ever other day.  could be why some blooms do not have spots.
