my tree limbs on my crape myrtle look burnt. Why?

1 Answer

Answer :

Add a couple of ounces of crushed egg shells to the watering cycle of your plant.  The burnt look may mean that the plant lacks the appropriate neutrients in the soil, and is dying.  The lack of blooms suggest insect damage and/or disease. -Birdy
