Q.Bright Orange Mold

Anonymous added on March 16, 2011 | Answered

My large green clover has very bright orange spores growing in small patches under their leaves, and it’s spreading throughout the clover in the pot. These are special clover in that some are four-leafed. Hoping you can tell me what is going on and how to help save the clover.

It sounds like the plants have some sort of rust fungus. Treat the plant with a fungicide. We are fond of neem oil as a fungicide, and also helps with keeping pests off. It's harmless to mammals as well. Here is more information:
