  • Question

    Japanese maple,.very old. Lace leaf,.umbrella style. I just used a lawn liquid fertilizer on the maple leaves,.maybe 20 seconds worth but the leaves seem are reacting to the nitrogen,.what can I do,.did go out and rewater {twice} the leaves.

    Answer

    samrienbolt, from your message it appears to added the fertilizer directly to the leaves? I'm not sure your reasoning for this. If you want to discuss further, please send a message to ahaines[at]newenglandwild.org and we can create a plan for you. Best wishes.
