Put this in the garden this spring and it had done well up until now. All of a sudden the growth is turning brown and weird. It's not soft like it's rot but the color sure is strange. We've had a lot of rain lately, is it some sort of fungus? Internal or external? Should I spray it with fungicide or actually water it with some? I have some systemic fingicide in my arsenal.
