The black rot of white peony is easy to happen in summer, generally because of the bad ventilation conditions, and it is still growing in the high humidity and high temperature environment, which will lead to the occurrence and growth of black rot. But sometimes it will be caused by scale insects.
This kind of disease can make the leaf of white peony appear black spot, enlarge gradually and make the leaf rot again, or affect the root..
When white peony is found to have black rot, it should be isolated from other plants immediately.
At the beginning of the disease, the rotten part can be cut off completely, and then some fungicides (chlorothalonil, carbendazim, etc.) can be applied on the incision, and then the incision after the application of the medicine can be dried until the sun is dried, and then the loose sand can be inserted after the air is dried..
