Title: Why is my white ok shedding bark?
Post by: kelLOGg on May 12, 2020, 07:01:37 PM
The crown looks fully filled out but outer bark is flaking off covering the ground. The pics are a little dark even though they were taken at noon. Other WOs are not doing this.

I suspect that it is a climbing critter living up in the crown that is knocking the scales off.
