: I have a crepe myrtle that is approx. 12-15 feet tall. It is peeling its bark on 2 canes and boy is it ugly underneath. Not the usual beautiful bark at all. This is gnarly and knobby and horribly colored. There are no borers present. Only a few mites. The foliage is green and healthy. I am worried I will lose the tree. Can you help?
DONNA: You better contact a local nurseryman and or your county agent to have a look at the crape myrtle. They may be able to make some recommendations, if they are necessary. MVG Plant Dr.
