This Week In the Garden
Effects of Sunscald
This week in the garden University of Memphis Director of Landscape Joellen Dimond shows some cherry trees that have been affected by sunscald. One tree has been able to heal from the damage while another has a large cavity in the side. Sunscald happens in the winter on thin-barked trees when part of the frozen bark is heated and thawed by the sun causing it to split.
