Default Re: Ensete Superbum Leaf Problems

I don't really have a fungicide that I'd recommend, although I have used copper fungicide with success for most things. I'm sure yours will work OK also, and I'd just mix it at the recommended rate for spraying (maybe a tad stronger). Just soak it for like 15 minutes or so, not too long. I forgot you said you had the same problem last year. So the fungus probably overwintered dormant in the corm, and the soil made no difference.
