What are the black spots on the leaves of my strawberry tree?

Our Advice:

Your Arbutus has leaf spot disease, which can be controlled with Fungus Fighter Plus for Ornamental Plants from Westland or Systhane Fungus Fighter from Bayer. Feed with Seaweed with Sequestered Iron from Vitax in April as leaf spot is worse on starved plants.
