Apple scab

[archiecolliedog]

Thanks very much, that’s a relief. In fact, it doesn’t look so bad this morning: perhaps I was panicking a bit! The tree is in the ground – I meant that I bought it in a container rather than bare-rooted – and I put mycorrhizal fungi in the hole and mulched it with plenty of good compost so I thought I’d done everything I could to give it a good start. I didn’t really want a family tree as I thought they might not be so vigourous – what do you think?
