Is this peach scab? #936493

Asked June 23, 2026, 9:59 AM EDT

I have a newly planted peach tree that has developed something on the bark. I didn’t let it produce this year so I don’t know if fruit was affected. Is this peach scab or something else? I’ve attached a picture.

It's hard to tell from the photo what exactly is going on. You're welcome to bring a sample to the Extension office, located within the Mesa County Fairgrounds (open 8am-5pm) and master gardeners can take a look. If you have questions, you can contact the office <personal data hidden>
