Best Answer

Fungus tends to result from overwatering. The damaged parts must be removed and burned. The drainage situation and the watering schedule need to be checked and changed. The soil surface needs to be cleared and cleaned of all litter. A systemic fungicide may be effective. A copper sulfate solution may not be a good choice, since copper accumulates in soil. The result may be copper levels that are toxic to plants. Greenflies, also called green aphids, may be treated with insecticidal soap. The solution may be store bought or home made. It's an environmentally friendly choice that leaves no toxic residue. But it may require a few applications.
