Latex paint guards against sun scald on trees
The Sun scald on southwest bark from cold spells is mitigated by white latex paint which reflects heat. Nursery practice uses diluted latex on grafts and greenhouse surfaces, while old dressings fade in usefulness. The piece also covers controlling fungus gnats, care for poinsettias, and reviving antique apple varieties.
