Wilt - most likely culprit

fortyonenorth · June 27, 2012

One of my Black Plum plants has a serious case of the wilt. This appeared yesterday, a mild day in the low 80s. I'm accustomed to Fusarium, which is often preceded by yellowing foliage and Veticillum which often strikes initially just one side of the plant. This seems different. The plant was super healthy one day - not a speck or hint of any foliar disease or any other issue. The next day, it was completely wilted - every single leaf. At first, I simply thought I had missed it on the watering rounds - it's been dry here - but that wasn't the case. Any thoughts?
