orange tree


Question
My tree is young. I planted it last fall. Our problem is a few of the limbs are dead. They have a clear sap on them. Very thick and heavy looking. I am worried it will kill the tree. Thank you.

Answer
Hi tom, Sometimes a citrus tree will have some branch die off.  I feel with the sap problem you may have aphids or a scale.  Do you have black leaves or ants on the plant?  It will kill the tree eventually if you do not take care of it.  I would suggest Atomic Grow as it is organic and will help put the tree back into health and keep the bugs away.  kathy
