Fuschia leaves

sleepy14

I have quite a few different fuschias in my garden, but a couple, in separate tubs have got similar brownish/purple stains on the leaves. I dug one plant up and threw it away because I was unsure what these markings were, but I am reluctant to throw any more away. Does anyone know what they could be?

Are you sure it isn't just the normal colour change with the cold nights coming in?

Orange dust under the leaves is fuchsia rust. Plants showing any sign of it should be burned/binned, but ordinary leaf discolouration at the end of a season probably doesn't require drastic action. It's likely to be a relatively harmless fungus attacking leaves that are soon to fall.
