Hi
Our honeysuckle has a problematic disease or something on it's leaves. Does anyone know what it is and how to treat it? Thank you. Tracey and Ian

Hi, Not sure if this helps, but mine has had exactly the same problem - dark spots, leaves yellowing then falling off completely. I think it is black spot, so I have cut mine right back and sprayed it with an anti fungal spray. I'm waiting to see if it recovers!

We've got it as well - I think it's really common on honeysuckle. I wondered if it was a mildew:

Anyway, a fungicide spray should sort it out, I hope!
