Subject: RE: Can you identify this?
Those are eriophyid mite galls. They are only cosmetic and don't affect
fruit production. Not much to be done about them as they are cyclical in
populations. You don't know from year to year whether they will be
prolific. Just enjoy the red galls they make, they are kind of
beautiful.
