My Hoya cv 'Sunrise'

(Zone 1)

Here's a close up of the leaves of my cv sunrise and the curling, warped leaves. I plan on going out today and buying some of that Daconil that you recommended Carol. I searched through my shed and found something made by Schultz that is called Garden Safe brand Fungicide 3 Concentrate ... it says on the container that it's a fungicide, insecticide, miticide. It says it can be used on fruits, nuts, herbs, veggies, flowers, trees, shrubs, roses and HOUSEPLANTS! Does anyone know anything about this product? Would it be just as good to use as the Daconil? I hate using chemicals on my plants, but if this is the cercosphora fungus as Carol said it might be .... I want to use the right thing to get rid of it!

I hope you can tell something by this photo ... I put the hoya on a white paper towel to try and make the leaves more visible. Thanks for any suggestions and help!

Lin...I occasionally use that Garden Safe fugicide/insecticide/etc. - it is a concentrate of the neem oil...and it must smother the spores....

Thanks Carol .... I'm gonna give it a try! It does say something about Neem on the label!
