[NAFEX] Northern Peach

    My oldest peach tree (variety unknown) is having problems and I wonder what, if anything, to do about it.  Vertical patches of bark become unattached from the wood.  When I remove this dead bark, I see that adjacent bark seems to be trying to grow over the exposed wood.  I don't know there is a problem until I see tiny white shelf fungi growing on the dead bark.  I removed some of the dead bark and wonder if I should remove all of it and paint exposed wood with pine tar.
    Suggestions very welcome.
