Check for scale insects - the sooty black stuff is mould probably living on excretions resulting from infestation - and deal with these. Depending on size of bay tree, either pick off the scale insects by hand or use a systemic insecticide - but don't use the bay leaves in your rice pudding any more if you use the insecticide. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |
