| I have one Tiarella Crow's Feather that seems to have a leaf spot disease. I have tried using that Bayer Tree and shrub control with Merit to help control it, but to no avail. I am thinking of shovel pruning the infected plant before it can spread to others near it (brunneras and heuchera). Can I replant in the same spot? Would I have to disinfect the soil there? And how?
This is a pic from last year and I noticed the same thing happening; the bitten edges may be from something else last year:

| hey kent.. i always solved this dilemma by simply not planting the same plant .... is there some reason it has to be another tiarella??? in the same vein .. cant you leave it fallow for the year???? ken |

| The notches in the leaves are from the black vine weevil. Control is difficult, so one solution is to plant things they don't prefer to eat. |
