My Hawkshead had it too but it's fine this year after being chopped to the ankles last year. A lilac and pink one I didn't like got binned so I don't know if that one would've survived. The hedgerow type magellicana and the pale pink one didnt get it . I've noticed that pink valerian gets something that looks like gall mite, but not the white or red.
I’m in NE England I have a bed of Genii Fuchsias in my front garden and they suffered gall mite about 4 years ago. That continued for another 2 years, much less affected in 2020 and just about free this year. I didn’t dig out any plants and just snipped out the worst affected shoots. Plants in the back garden weren’t affected. Good luck
I live in Somerset & have two Mrs Popple fuchsias in borders, both of which have gall mites. I keep trimming off the affected parts but it still keeps coming. I have thought about digging them up but read that if we have a cold winter of 5 degrees or less, it might, just might, kill off the mites. I think I'll leave prune them a little & pray for some cold weather which really goes against the grain.
