Hey! Can anyone help me identify what’s going on with this string of hearts please? She’s got black it’s on her leaves and they seem to discoloured and look sad. I’ve sprayed for kites but now yeh leaves are turning dark purple and some dying off. 😔 would appreciate any advice x

It’s a black fungus, I haven’t tried it but wiping it away with neem oil might do the trick
