Q.My Apple Tree Looks Sick, Can You Help ?

Zone England | StephsGarden added on May 2, 2022 | Answered

My apple tree, whilst it produces blossom and apples, has wilted leaves covered in a mouldy dust, the branches also appear to have green marks on. Please can you advise what this is and how to treat it ?

Likely, this is Powdery Mildew. Likely, because of the humidity and wet soils in your area. This is, easily, controlled with fungicides of your choice.
