Yes as long as the bark isn’t removed all the way around the tree. I’m assuming you mean green giant arborvitae. They are usually pretty good at healing themselves but a treatment such as this will certainly help them along.
That’s called black knot. Prune out infected limbs during the dormant season then spray with daconil, starting as soon as you get flower buds, maybe 3 applications at 12-14 day intervals. Also keep in mind that the native cherry trees are very prone to this disease and can be a source for future infection so if you live in a wooded area keep a look out for these infected trees and remove them if you can.
This advice is so helpful. Can you please show us how the bark looks now? Did the branch survive? How often did you have to keep treating it?
I just found your channel and subscribed. Great information and I am looking forward to more videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Wow, thank you, I have learned so much!! Your videos are gold!
Glad they are helpful!
Brilliant video. Many thanks.
Liked your treatment. Do you have any images of the trees own repair?
I think you just baited the tree for another visit by Mr Bear!
