You are right there Sheilar. I have an old sycamore tree on the other side of my back garden fence. It was very late in shooting leaf and some of the leaves look a bit dodgy. I always put a few tubs near the back gate to add security. This time I've found the dahlias and lilies panted in the tubs have caught a cotton wool sort of fungi while a potted azalea has given up the ghost in less than a fortnight I had similar problems before and all in the same place.I did ring the parks department while the sycamore was dormant but was told the tree was okay, I think I'll leave to my own judgement from now on. I am taking some photos and will post on ask a question...
