They are soft and hollow and I've ever seen this before. Are they sick or what? Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

My Plum trees look good but the apples are sure taking a beating from the army worms. I did see my first covey of grouse chicks tonight. There were about 10 of the little gum drops. I have nothing clever to put here.

Hope to at least get a few plums this year! Originally Posted by KeithC It looks like plum pox. It's caused by a virus, spread by aphids. It can infect all stone fruits.
