I've been doing a bit of googling and from what I've read you used to be able to buy Ditahne to treat scab. However, it's been discontinued/banned. Bayer do this :http://www.bayergarden.co.uk/products/product.aspx?productid=188&categoryid=17 which is other the stuff I was talking about when I was saying about the bordeaux mixture. So I'd wait until your bordeaux mix arrives and see if you can use it for the apple tree as well.
Actually, hang on and I'l go to the shed and look at my bottle...
Okay, says you can use it for controling fungal infections, so I'd try it when yours comes.:heart: Mummy to an amazing little girl
