Hi Everyone!
I just bought a 3 new blueberry plants from a nursery last week. I
started an edible container garden & am planning on planting each
blueberry plant into separate containers.
Anyway, one of the blueberry plants was bought in a 2 gallon
container. I have not transplanted it yet. I was examining it &
noticed that there were some beads of sap(?) or some liquid... like
dew at the edges of some of the leaves. Also, the new leaves were
shriveled up & dry & almost falling off, & the attachment point to the
rest of the plant had turned black.
I took some pictures.
1. The following picture shows withered new leaves at the top of 2
branches.

leaf. You can also see withered new leaves in the background.

I checked for insects. My tomato plants had some aphids & a few other
bugs on them. This particular blueberry plant didn't have any bugs...
just a few ants.
I'd appreciate any insight into what's going on.
Thanks!
