ID help: tree, and red spikes on leaves
Hi all,
I need some help identifying the kind of tree outside my house planted by the city several years ago. More importantly I'd like to know what those ugly "red spikes" on some of the leaves are. Are they mite galls? If so, how to get rid of them? About 20% of the leaves have these spikes. Here are some pictures I just took today: Entire tree: http://poboxes.podzone.org/tmp/tree_overall.jpg Leaves close-up: http://poboxes.podzone.org/tmp/good_leaves.jpg Spikes: http://poboxes.podzone.org/tmp/spikes1.jpg http://poboxes.podzone.org/tmp/spikes2.jpg http://poboxes.podzone.org/tmp/spikes3.jpg http://poboxes.podzone.org/tmp/spikes4.jpg Thanks and have a nice day. |
