I have spent 7 years and 5 attempts to grow a successful tree. I finally got one in the ground, but now it seems to be sick. No, its not transplant shock (I planted it last year). It has these brown spots shaped like targets embedded in the larger leaves. The smaller leaves remain unaffected. Whats going on, and how do I fix it? Please! I don't want to lose another tree!
Sorry, but I am unable to supply a picture, as for the type, I beleve it's either a red maple or a japanese maple
"brown spots shaped like targets" sounds like possibly some kind of virus. Sorry I don't know the solution though if it is.
