Growth on rosemary plant - Ask Extension Hi - The growths you are observing on the stems are called adventitious roots These can occur during plant tissue development when some type of stimulus triggers the cells to become roots rather than bark stem This can be a response to any type of stress or injury The plant will survive You can prune out the affected stems if you wish, and you can still eat the leaves without concern It
Beech Tree Disease - Ask Extension Is there any way to save three mature beech trees on my yard which appear to have either Beech Leaf Disease or Beech Bark Disease?
What’s wrong with my rhododendron - Ask Extension The photos aren't showing enough of the branch scaly quality you describe, but it's probably normal bark development as the branches mature, as their smoother green, yellow, or brown nature becomes more corky, woody, and bark-like as they get older Lichen can also grow on shrub branch bark without causing any damage
How do I protect my redbud tree? - Ask Extension Included bark is the most likely explanation (which tends to develop when two branches are crowded next to each other instead of separated at a wider angle), or perhaps the beginnings of wood decay from another cause Miri Answered by the Home and Garden Information Center (HGIC), University of Maryland Extension

Sick Plum Tree - Ask Extension The lesions, cracking, and discoloration of the bark suggest a serious infection or dieback of those tissues, but it's hard to tell from the photos what the original cause was (It likely began months or even a year or more ago ) Fruit trees (both those used for a harvest and the ornamental flowering versions that don't produce edible fruit) are vulnerable to a range of pest and disease issues
Japanese maple - Ask Extension You can also look for trunk damage (gnawing on the bark from voles, perhaps), especially if there is mulch piled against the trunk base, but we don't think that's a factor since more drastic dieback would likely have already taken place Miri Answered by the Home and Garden Information Center (HGIC), University of Maryland Extension
