I have a 10m long x2m high Lilly Pilly hedge which i have just discovered is infected with myrtle rust. any suggestions as to what i should do?
welcome to the forum
If you haven’t already, take some photos of the rust, and then upload an observation with them to iNaturalist itself (www.inaturalist.org)
then you can join this project specifically for reporting myrtle rust in New Zealand - https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/myrtle-rust-reporter - and add your observation to it.
they also include some FAQs for you that explain what to do next: https://www.landcareresearch.co.nz/discover-our-research/biodiversity-biosecurity/ecosystem-resilience/beyond-myrtle-rust/faq/
