ACALYPHA DISEASES
Odema causes rust colored swellings on the leaves. The problem is worse on overwatered plants or in excessively humid environments. Try increasing the light exposure and a slight reduction in watering.
Leaf spots may be seen on copper leaf but these are generally not serious. A disease called red leaf gall causes the formation of reddish galls on the leaves. Control can be achieved by picking off and destroying the infected leaves.
