Good lord the list must be endless for pests and diseases...each one varies for each individual plant dependant on acidity, plant type etc etc...!! hmmm...would suggest if looking for books the old "flower & plant expert" series...as for websites perhaps would just google "plant diseases and pests"?!

I think the RHS site has a message board - maybe try there? God at least I was given a list of pests and diseases to research! Your tutor must be a masochist. Another idea just came to me - Kew are really very helpful, if you ring and explain you are a student they might be able to guide you in the right direction. Good luck

If you pm me I will reply with the list we use - its fairly extensive - wont give you the answers but just a starting point
