I received a number of raspberry plants that have black or grey specks/smut/fuzz on the stems.  I'm reluctant to plant these here where I have a healthy raspberry patch (or anywhere else on the property where wild brambles grow).

 

I am going to write the nursery for a refund.  Can anyone suggest what the problem might be with these plants?
