Removing Ivy

Question

I’ve just removed heavy ivy infestation from a Russian Olive tree (Elaeagnus Angustifolia) and the bark looks a bit flaky. Is this a problem and do I need to do anything?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. Usually, though, a little bark damage will not harm the tree. Just care for it as it should be, and it should fare just fine.
