The spots started after a good rain storm maybe it's a fungus considering when it started.The only thing i could find in this little town was Garden safe fungicide 3, fungicide,miticide,insecticide.It's 1% neem oil.It hasn't helped at all (surprise)  My moma and grandma added neem oil to water with a squirt of non-antibacterial dish liquid.They would shower their plants that had creature's and i think it worked on fungus as well.If anyone can give me opinion on this mixture please let me know or if anyone has a better mixture.I am going to have to go to Augusta this weekend so please recommend something. Here's the plant a pereskia aculeata 'leaf cactus' here's not long after it started  now the whole plant looks like this    the last picture is what the plant started out looking like. I am going out now to re-pot it, which will probably knock off the rest of the leaves. Have a nice day thanks I asked for a flower and he gave me a garden,then grand-kids to work in it with me!!!! |

| Jelinda - is that some kind of virus? If so, I'd burn the plant to prevent it speading. Maybe someone else knows better before you take drastic action!  |

| I would take it to your local extension service. Or a good gardening shop. Or look up plant fungi on line. Leap. The net will appear. |
