Abstract
Photinia, a broad leaf evergreen, is widely grown in nurseries in Tennessee. It is used extensively in landscape plantings, most often in border plantings. Photinia X fraseri is especially popular because of its bright red immature foliage. Leaf spot caused by the fungus Entomosporium maculatum continues to be a persistent and destructive disease of photinia and other species in the family Rosaceae in nurseries and landscape beds. This disease is most often reported on red-tip photinia (P. X fraseri).
