Expert Response
Are you seeing any Japanese Beetles on your tree? From the pictures it looks more like damage from an insect. If you can give me a call or send me an email I can set up a time to come look at your tree. We also have a district forestry expert that we can contact if I'm not able to solve this issue. The Campbell office number is<personal data hidden> and my email is <personal data hidden>
Thanks,
