Help with Disease
Hi there, I'm new at caring for these. They've been neglected for years, but never exhibited disease like this until I started trying to take better care of them! These bushes always bore at least a little fruit, but last year I decided to fertilize them with slow-release balanced fertilizer and watered them during dry patches. I tried pruning them in early spring because I read that was the smart thing to do. Now the whole patch is showing whatever disease this is. Is this stem blight? I'm horrified that I've ruined them. Any suggestions?
