Leaf paperbark maple3/2/2024 Any advice is appreciated and thanks in advance. Is this problematic? If it's something diagnosable, what can I do to treat it? I can take more pictures if needed. Besides this, I haven't noticed anything awry and the plants continue to put out new growth. The picture isn't great, but they look kind of like the mouth of a smiley face, an up-turned banana, and I see them mostly on the underside of the leaves. The first thumbnail has a bug on it that I frequently see on the leaves and I originally thought it was a harmless springtail but after looking it up it looks nothing like it. The one pictured is the largest, but the other two aren't much smaller. These are the most difficult to get of the plants I have and I'm proud of them and want to take as best care of them as I can and I'm concerned this will continue to get worse and kill my little trees. One was transplanted and the others had some watering irregularities so I chocked it up to that, but I want to be sure there isn't anything to be worried about here. One didn't make it, and the rest have consistently shown this browning. I acquired them as dormant bare stock early in the spring and have been growing them outside since. In summer the leaves are a soft shade of blue green on the upper side, and a frosty white on the underside. In some places it is polished, smooth, and shiny. The beautiful bark is a deep shade of cinnamon and it peels off in thin, papery sheets. I have several paperbark maples that are just a couple years old, less than 18" tall. Paperbark maple trees are small trees that grow to 35 feet (11 m.) over some 20 years.
