Myrtle crest repair

Post by AliciaAlhamad »

Hello all, I have a blue myrtle crest that had a rot issue on its crest. I cut the rot off with a sharp clean knife. The area appears to have a good callus and then started to harden and turn beige. I am not sure if this is okay or I need to do more. Please advise.

It's not rot, so no problem. With that much cut surface, some die-back is not surprising.
