Any ideas what this orangey stuff is? It then seems to burn/eat the leaves but there isn't any visible bugs. How can I treat please?

    Hi, I experienced this last year, I couldn't explain exactly what this is, but I think it's a natural rust fungus. I just chopped off the infected leaves and the new growth was stronger than ever.

    Thank you for taking time time to comment. Like you I have been removing affected leaves but it's returned again this year and poor plant is getting smaller and smaller. Pleased to read that yours is doing well. Take care.

    I have seen lots shriveling of leaves on my plant and extensive snail damage. Nothing seems to keep them at bay. I’ve just repotted from the garden and am trying to rehab this plant.  Others in the forum have trimmed back to 3 inches. Is this advised? I live in Zone 9B.  Any suggestions for soil, moisture and pest prevention are welcome.
