HI everyone,

I have a few leaves which have developed this red spot on them - it goes right through the leaves. I have them currently on my strawberry guava, but also have had this on my grumichama too. Any help greatly appreciated

My poor Grumichuma is being really set back with something nearl;y identical . New shoots dieing , all fruit dropping before maturing .. nearbye yellow jaboticaba is suffering a similar fate .

Hopefully it is not Myrtle Rust. Have a look if see yellow, orange or brownish powder - the spores.

Thanks everyone. Hi trikus, i don't have the dieback on the new growth but the leaves look much the same. Peter there are no spores or powder at all - they are more like depessions in the leaf which are red all the way through.
