Spots on the foliage of blackcurrant, gooseberry, raspberry bushes

Sometimes you may notice spots on the foliage of your berries (raspberries, blackcurrants, gooseberries, etc.), the leaves are spotted, purplish, or dry. Don't worry, this is simply a sign of autumn! The plants have hardened their wood and buds to survive the winter, the leaves are subject to fungal attacks and will eventually fall. This is the completely natural cycle of berries at this time of year and will have no impact on the health of the plants, which will resume their vegetation the following spring.
