We were given a pussy willow (at least that's what i think it is) for DS2's birth 2 years ago and it is looking decidedly ill at the moment, it does have some small brown buds so not dead yet.
It has a sort of (yucky) waxy layer around the top of the trunk and when i peeled a bit off there were some bugs underneath it
I took a couple of photos and they should be on my profile.
What is it?
What do we do about it? if anything.
