Hello! I'm new to the forum and fig plants.
I have a first year plant (Burgan Unknown) that has dark spots emanating from the heel of the leaves where the stem attaches. Attached several photos.
I looked into fig leaf rust disease, but it does not look the same to me, and I am in a dry climate (So Cal, 10a). I did not see anything else similar.
The tree seems to be growing OK though, and it's been this way for a while. If anyone has seen this before please do let me know.
Thanks!
