	Bleeding Heart
		This pathogen infects the vascular or water-conducting tissues of plants, and causes wilt symptoms by impairing water flow.
		As a result, symptomatic plants may flag or wilt on one side of the plant, leaves may be twisted and yellow on one side, turn brown and hang down prior to drying up.
		The pathogen survives in soil and plant debris for long times, so disposal of plants and soil without spread is important.
