Jono77 starts with ... Hey there, A few of my fruit trees suffered bad hail damage, the worst being my reed Avo. The bark and cambium have been stripped around 50% in some spots. The tree has grown back all its leaves vigorously through winter since the damage. Is this tree worth saving for the long run or do I cut my losses and save my time and buy a new one? TIA if anyone answers.

Linda says... I've been spectacularly unsuccessful with Avos here in Sydney with my awful clay acid soil. BUT saying that - given the you are in QLD and the tree has vigorously grown it's leaves back, I'd give it the benefit of the doubt. Feed it well and seaweed it too and see how you go. The damage is 'sort of' a cincturing. also it is not a total ring bark as the spots are separated by good bark. | About the Author Linda CANOELANDS,2157,NSW 24th August 2021 8:54pm #UserID: 12687 Posts: 55 View All Linda's Edible Fruit Trees |
