Garlic rust is it serious?

Thanks. My leeks and onions are unaffected so far, fingers crossed.

You could use a Bordeaux Mixture to protect the new growth and remove the old infected leaves as they begin to die off. If the site is in your garden, I would consider leaving it a couple of years before planting again and then in a different spot. If again its growing on an allotment the spores can be spread from other infected plants (even onions and leeks).
