Hi plummie mommy, thanks for answering. I am so upset, I thought I lost this little one last fall when it defoliated from rust. It has been so healthy this summer. We have not had excessive rains recently but we have had humidity in the 85% - to 90% range pretty steadily.

As you can see it is not a huge problem - yet. I just cut off 5 leaves that had these tiny spots. They do have the familiar orange spot on the reverse side of the leave.
