Hi, Folks.

I was wondering if someone might know what this is or if it's something to worry about. I've got a plant that has kind of a brownish/rust tinge to it. The stem has kind of a splotchy purple color to it. There isn't any wilting to speak of (yet, anyway) and the plant is growing and producing fruit. It is smaller than its neighbors because it went in much later and was a bit root-bound (stressed) when it was planted.

I apologize for not having the photos in the message. There was some problem and they wouldn't appear.

Thanks. ~Adam
