First off, I apologize for the poor resolution...I don't want to cause any headaches...the tree is otherwise healthy, but I have noticed this dark black color on the trunk....I don't think it is algae...it will not come off with a stiff brush...just wonder if anyone has experienced a similar occurrence with Serissa. Thanks in advance. Regards, Tom

Never had this on any of mine. __________________ If at first you don't succeed -- skydiving is not for you. Always remember that you're unique -- just like everyone else Enjoy this day. Bill
