[IBC] Japanese Maple foliage problem
Hi all,
recently received another Japanese Maple through the post, the Deshojo variety. Unfortunately, due to our Easter holidays here in Greece, it arrived with a large delay and as a result most of its foliage is destroyed or half destroyed. The red leaves have turned black or have black edges. However, the trunk and the branches look fine. Now I have watered it well and I will let it recover but it looks like it will take some time. Is it wise to remove the half-black leaves ? What else can I do to aid its recovery ? many thanks Dimitris __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Is it wise to remove the half-black leaves ? _I_ would -- just in case the black is from a fungus. Remove and destroy. What else can I do to aid its recovery ? Keep it out of your Greek sun -- and wind. Only water when the soil begins to dry out an inch below the surface. A dose of fertilizer probably won't hurt next week.
