Hello, I am reading conflicting info on Red Leaves on Viburnum plants. Some say Rust disease, others say too high ph and one says its a natural thing. Incidentally, my red leaves do not have any spots, nor do any of the other Leaves. Any advice appreciated.

    That looks fine to me. All plants lose leaves, evergreens spread out the loss over the year.

    I thought viburnums leaves turned red naturally in the autumn?

    Can't remember whether or not burwoodii is deciduous but all my deciduous viburnums leaves are currently varying shades of red and dark purple. They look lovely in the autumnal sun. My evergreen Tinus has a few bright red leaves like the ones in the picture.
