tree trunk rust
Posted by Veronica , Aug 11,2005,17:30 | Forum |
Hi there
I have a small crab apple tree in my garden in Scotland,UK. The bark on the trunk has become coated in a brown/rust colour, and it feels a little spongy. Any idea what this is and how to treat it? The foliage and flowers seem to be ok.
