The message
from "Colin Jacobs" contains these words:

The only fungus I have come across is Taphrina pruni (Pocket Plums)
CJ

I used to have an excellent damson, until it got pocket-plum which
wiped out the fruit crops. Nearby, there was an extensive thicket of
wild sloes which suffered the same fate.

Thanks for the replies . Is there a cure for this , systemic or whatever ,
or is it not advisable , or not economic ?
