I've got a maple tree that was planted 2-3 year ago. The tree seemed
week from very beginning - the leaves were not as thick, they
appeared later and fell earlier. I was not sure whether that was a
reason to be concerned. Last year, however, I've noticed that the
bark on the tree cracked and is peeling. The peeling area is rather
big - up to 30 % of the width of the tree. The peeled bark is as
dry as on a dead tree. Is there something wrong with a tree? Should
I treat it with something? I know next to nothing about gardening
and appreciate any info I can get,
