wee pal porgy has recently planted some box hedging
unfortunately most of the leaves are rust in colour ~ are they prone to fungal rust ?

Could be rust, they do get it. Try this info from the RHS:

thanks j :)~i've checked out the link unfortunately the leaves look nothing like that.

What about this one - common box rust (not common in the UK.

Or it could just be the light levels & temperature, they do go a bit orangey when its cold & bright. I notice you are in Scotland. Not renowned for tropical heat!

thanks again j :)~not like that either.
porgy was speaking to another neighbour today & they had said the leaves have turned that colour due to lack of watering as the plants were trying to get established.
