Hi,
Im having problems with 2 trees i have, the first one had an infection, lots of white dots all over the soil, now 90% of the branches have lost their leaves, now after constant watering with pureified water it seems to have leaves growing back, will the branches with no leaves on them die ? also, i bought a 12 year old tree 3 weeks ago which is growing like mad but i am scared to chop too many leaves off, it also has a white chalky residue on the trunk, help, please, do i need some sort of chemical to kill off the infections ?
