A bunch of privets in pots suffered a lot the winter of 08/09 and now have some spongy weird growth and lots of bark splitting. Is this biotic or abiotic? Any info would be helpful. Thanks Laura Ralph www.aliveandwellorganic.ca
If this turns out to be crown gall plants should be discarded. http://plant-disease.ippc.orst.edu/articles.cfm?article_id=8
Thanks a lot Ron. I've been trying to convince the client that it would be a bad idea to plant these out into the ground. Hopefully, the link you pointed me to will give me the extra leverage I need to get them to destroy them. Happy Gardening, Laura
