plums

[gordonsveg]

Had a great crop of Victoria plums this year,but had to discard a good few due to a "disease".The plums looked as if they were going mouldy.
                Any ideas please.

May be a case of improved hygiene in autumn to limit overwintering giving the best relief without the chemical bombardment necessary to eliminate fully. Its one of natures endemic delights.
