Found outgrowths on some segments of the plant today. They look like black spots, surrounded by white circles. I suppose that’s some kind of fungus, though if so - then why some of the spots are convex?🤨 Anyhow, the plant has become smaller after the removal of the affected segments 😐 #fungus #disease #pruning

What do you think about lichens (地衣)? Are they useful? Are they pests? Should I keep them around?
Lichens are a combination of fungus and algae. They are self-sufficient and occupy spaces that are not used by other plants. They seem to respond poorly to acute conditional changes, and will die out if something is not right, similar to moss.
