Oak tree help

[Pedigree]

Hi guy,

Im sorry this has nothing to do with fruit or veg but could anyone tell me please why my 4/5 year old oak tree has this white stuff on new red leaves? It doesnt seem to be on the other leaves.

Help would be much appreciated.


Many Thanks

Hi Steve. I have some mature English oak trees and the young leaves have a white powdery coating - they always do, every year. I've no idea what it is but it doesn't seem to affect the trees.
Maybe someone who knows about red oaks will be along shortly
