I have attached a photo of a strange development on my Autumn Flowering Cherry Tree. Is this a disease. I must mention that since I planted this tree two years ago it has been plagued with disease and while it flowers they are few and far between. I sprayed it regularly thoughout the season last year and now this funny branch has appeared. Should I dig the tree up and thrown it out and/or will it infect my other trees in the garden.
