Here are some photos of some of the plants that will be heading to the trash pile soon.
The first is the KBX which is totally ruined by fusarium.
2nd is German Johnson which is near the end.
3rd is Barlow Jap which is in about the same shape.
4th is NAR which was one of the first to show symptoms but is still hanging on though I don't think it will last much longer.

The last 3 have all had one or more major stems cut off but the KBX had the wilt move up every stem at the same time. Sometimes removing one really wilting main stem near the base seems to slow the progression of the disease into the other stems.
