It’s taken a couple of years for bark to fall off.
I want to know if my tree is safe from falling.
It is blooming nicely now.
It’s rotten a few inches behind fallen bark, looks like a bug maybe, but don’t see any.
You’re help appreciated

I sent a photo.

Dear Mr. Martin,
I am providing you the contact information of two Horticulturists, one in Fort Bend and the other in Galveston Counties. Please contact them directly via their email address. They can make a recommendation to you for treatment or perhaps contacting a Arborist.
