tri color beach tree / disease gull


Question
i have a tri- color beach aprox. 30 years old the last 3 years it has had a strange almost like a seed that falls from it every fall. i was told this was gull. I'm not sure, what can be done if anything the tree seems healthy otherwise.

Answer
I am not sure what you are asking. Galls are formations made by insects. The insect lays its eggs on the leaf or twig surface the secretes a chemical that causes the cells on the leaf to expand and cover the eggs. These are not a problem to the health of the tree.
Beech tree do have a nut like seed and these do drop during the year. Does not really sound like there is a health problem with your tree.
