Apparent rust on acer pensylvanicum erythrocladum
I tried this on the group about 2 weeks ago, but got no responses. Does anyone
know what causes, and what can be done about, the problem mentioned in the subject line of this post? Laurie |

Laurie Not many people grow this fabulous tree. It is hard to come by, expensive when you do, and often fails within the first five years, IME. I don't know what to advise, but I wish you luck with your specimen. Flora |

I don't know what to advise, but I wish you luck with your specimen. Flora Thanks for the reply. We have two specimens. One has gone in only this year, so we can't report properly on it. The other one has been in about a year, and that is the one with the rust. However, it appears to be the same sort of rust as many large-leaved acers get in summer, and its vigour does not seem to have been affected. It has grown about 12 inches in 12 months. It has been grafted, but we do not know what the root stock is. The people from whom we bought it did not know what the root stock was. We took a chance on it being small rather than forest type. The pink bark with white stripes is gorgeous. If we learn any more, we'll let you know. Laurie and Jan Laurie (Laurence) Moseley Plus Ultra |

So maybe just feed it and keep it well watered so it can cope with the effects of the rust? It has been grafted, but we do not know what the root stock is. The people from whom we bought it did not know what the root stock was. We took a chance on it being small rather than forest type. In that case I suspect the nursery you bought from had themselves bought it in from holland as a grafted specimen. The pink bark with white stripes is gorgeous. I'll keep my fingers crossed for your specimens to thrive. If we learn any more, we'll let you know. Laurie and Jan Flora |
