First time gardener, and things were going well till about a month or so ago when I noticed that one of the two peonies planted this spring had some white/gray substance on the leaves. It's been spreading all over the plant. Can anyone confirm that it is Botrytis? Here are some pictures
There's another Peony next to this (not pictured) that hasn't yet got this disease. Somehow I didn't record which plant was which, but one of the two is 'Monsiuer Jules ...' and the other is 'Karl Rosenfeld' both obtained from a reputed local nursery.
Anyway, what should be the treatment for this now? Should I apply something and/or cut off everything on the plant that has the disease (which won't leave much at this point).
Thanks for your advice,
