Our Crab apple tree doesn't appear to be as full and vibrant as our neighbors. Although both trees have a green fungus/mold, our tree has much smaller leaves. It's it dying? Can we save it or does it pose a risk to other plants and trees? I've included pics of both.

Hi Pamela! Please send me pictures of your leaves. I need to see if there are spots on the leaves so a few close-ups will help.
The green growth is nothing to cause concern. It's just from wet weather. Most of the trees in my yard have it too.
