I got a crabapple last year from Plant City Bonsai, came to late to work with but it bloomed some pretty flowers. It did not form any apples last year. This spring I moved it into a pot and cut back some of the tall branches, it came out really well, not but a couple of flowers but I figured it was due to the root work and cut back. I am letting a couple of the new shoots grow in hopes of getting a couple of new branches for that side. With our mild weather I have not had to water but about every 3 day, which at end of the 3rd day it my have a slight wilt to the leaves. Today was one of those days it had started to wilt. As I was watering, I noticed the tan spots on the shoot. At first I thought it was just growing and then realized what it was. I tried to spray with water, but did not use much force as this is new growth and it did not come off. I included the pictures just to see if you agree it is scale. I mixed up some Neem Oil and sprayed it good tonight, any other good action I can take to make sure the scale is gone?
