Recently bought a japanes maple, has noticed the scar trunk, should I return it?
I recently bought a maple laceleaf weeping Japanese. It is about 4 feet high, with about 3 in the trunk diameter. When I got home, I noticed marked right place at the bottom above the ground. it is well below the graft, so I assume it is unrelated. My brother said it looks like Weedeater damage. It seems to be healed and looked round and just rolled edges. Like when someone cuts off a limb, and how it heals. My brother thinks that it will stunt his growth. Any help is appreciated. I think he should return, I think it adds character to it and I'm fine with him until he shall not be less healthy. It appears right now very healthy. It was about $ 150 so I want to make a mistake. Thank you!
If the wound is healed and you can not see the wood inside the bark, the wound is old, healed and will most likely not caused problems. If the wound was fresh or if you could see the wood under the bark I would like to make, but from your description the tree has healed is healthy. It will not retard growth. Enjoy your new trees.
