Split bark on Laburnum
I have had to remove a substantial amount of rotting bark from my old Laburnum due to splitting . I realize Feb is not a good month to do this, but it has been very mild. Should I seal these wounds and if so, with what??

AIUI sealing severed limbs etc of trees with ?Arbrex (that tarry paste), is now no longer advised as it encourages fungal disease under the seal. I believe the recommended treatment now is to let them heal naturally, but I may be wrong. Yup. I've read that, too. Best to leave nature to her own devices. -- Spider from high ground in SE London gardening on clay |
