<pre>Hello Mike

thanks for your email. We also met Peacock Spot wich seems to be the
most usual effect of humidity and fog. I heard that certain varieties,
such as Picholine du Languedoc, may show a good resistence to Peacock
Spot. Returning the soil to bury the ill leaves or burning them can
also help. What is Softnose and Anthracnose?

Regards

Saâd
