I have a problem with a new Bramley apple tree I planted this summer. It has a white fungus growing on where the branches meet the trunk. When I rub it off, its red!!!!! like blood. Can you help please?

Your tree has woolly aphid…a form of greenlfies …  you need to spray with an insecticide. Mix in a few drops of washing-up liquid to help get through the wool.
