Fungicide applications
Lots of good info on the web, it's a common issue with certain peaches in cooler climates

i've read in the Western Home and Garden encyclepedia that during the growing season there isnt much to be done , That it really wont harm the tree and just take off the affected leaves when they turn brown or let them fall naturally. Come fall spray the tree with Sevin read precautions before using on anything

Why are you recommending an insecticide (Sevin) to help with a fungal issue?

I used a copper fungicide on the leaves that were diseased and it worked well .
