[NAFEX] Re: quince rust, yuck

["Kristina & Bruce" <herenorthere@lycos.com>]

My Aromatnaya had been disease free the previous 5+ years, but caught a case of quince rust last year.  I took out the couple remaining junipers last summer but, in a neighborhood of 50 x 100 ft. lots, I can't get all possible sources.  I'm being more methodical with the spraying this year but limit myself to organic sprays.  Good luck in your battle.
