This appears to be multiple infections from heavy, oversaturated soils.

Fungicides and Bactericides will be in order, here. These articles will help:

I would recommend adding several amendments to increase porosity of soil, drainage, and nutrient content. This will help to stave off infections in the future, once you have this one under control.
