Hello all,

I recently bought a house in the Austin TX area and need to know about Crepe Myrtles. Specifically, a limb grew into an older branch. It sliced through the outer skin of this bigger branch. Should I leave it alone or cut the newer branch away. Will that start a rot in the bigger branch?
Thanks for any advice!
Connie
