Can I use Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate for crab apple fungus?

Have a flowering crab apple tree that begins to turn brown early in the season and looses leaves. Try to spray with your product early but still drops leaves in a bed of hostas that then turn brown. Can I use the spray on the hostas to prevent the spread of fungus?

Answer:

Bonide Fruit Tree Spray Concentrate is not labeled to be applied to ornamental plants so we cannot recommend it for use on hostas nor is it labeled to be used on crab apples.  We would recommend contacting a local arborist or horticulturalist to be sure of what exactly is causing the browning and that you are treating correctly.  From there, we can make a better recommendation on a product to use.
