We have a Camelia out the front which is in shade, this morning we've been out there and noticed that it's covered in black leaves, can anyone let me know what it is ?? the black doesn't rub off the leaves are completly black. Is there a spray or do i dig it up ?? It's been there along time it was there when we moved in.

could it have been the frost and freezing winds?

Googling this problem, it appears to be mould and aphids and they won’t kill the camellia. Monty Don said it will wash off. Others say spray with the appropriate treatment and wash off later. Sounds hopeful.
