Victoria Plum Brown Rot?
in Fruit & veg
Hi everyone,
First post here, just wanted an opinion on our Victoria plum condition. We were given the tree from a family member last spring it was potted and looking very sorry for itself so we decided to pop it in the ground and see what would happen.
Last year there was very little growth and it looked like it may not survive. This year to my amazement we had new branch growth plenty of leaves and an actual fruit crop. The tree has however been plagued with ants farming aphids. We tried treating it and it seems to have gotten that situation in control. Since we first noticed the fruit a lot of it appears to have these brown scaley dry patches on them after researching the only thing I can find is possibly brown rot?
But the patches are extremely dry which is why i'd like your opinions
Thanks in advance.
