Why are my Nankings looking like that? Could it be monilia? Also I haven‘t found any info on how weed tolerant they are. Is it advisable to keep them weed free at their base or doesn‘t it matter?

I had several Nankings die at my old house. They would start by wilting from the tips of individual branches and work it’s way down slowly spreading to the rest of the bush, I figured it was some type of disease, or fungus… I don’t know what caused it

I have 4 seed-grown nankings.
They’ve been in ground for 4 years, but have not grown much.
I’ve also had individual stems die off.
Had almost given up on them, but was pleasantly surprised today when I saw flowers on one of them.
It’s growing right next to a flowering Opal plum and a Lapins cherry.
Will any of those work for pollination?

I think some plums can cross pollenate each other from looking at various pollination charts.
