The first symptom is a mosaic discoloration pattern on the leaves. Bamboo Mosaic Virus – this virus is usually acquired in a nursery setting where it is transmitted on the blades of pruning tools. You can treat the disease with a copper-based fungicide, but since the plants that have spots are old, consider culling them to make room for younger, more vigorous plants. They appear most often in humid climates. Fungal spots – Fungal spots, like rust, sometimes appear on older plants. If the bamboo disease treatment calls for pruning, disinfect the pruning shears between cuts by flaming the blades so that you don’t spread the disease.
