Maple Tree Problem
I have a maple tree that I have been growing in my back yard for 3
years now. It is about 6 feet tall. About 1 in 3 leaves has a little red thing popping up out of it. I am not sure what it is. My question is what is it and if it is bad how do I fix it. Thanks |

These abnormal growths are leaf galls. While they may be aesthetically
unattractive, they seldom result in harm to the tree so control is not warranted or necessary. http://www.extension.umn.edu/distrib...re/DG1009.html |
Maple Tree Problem
This is the time of the year we usually start seeing odd lumps or growths on
maple leaves, which are called galls. This is simply a cosmetic issue and won't harm the leaves or tree. Enjoy this curiosity of nature!
