Re: Blooms - Apple growth

HiCarleen,

Thank you for your message, I had another person say they thought it was
Wasp Gall,  So we cut off the branch and Ken cut it open.  He thought it was
a hatchery for some bug or other and burnt it so it woouldn't spread.

If we had been thinking a llittle faster we should have taken it to the
Department of Agriculture and found out what it was.  If another turns up,
that is what I will do.

It was bigger than a Persimon (about a small apple size and Granny Newton
color.).

If you find that reference, I'd like to read it.

Pat
