Phillips on August 27, 2003 at 10:28:47: : I posted a message about ten days ago or may two weeks and did not receive an answer, but the message is no longer on the board. My tree is losing a lot of leaves.It started in June, but has gotten worse, they get blackor brown spots, then turn yellow and then fall off. I feel it is not dying because surely it would just lose all it's leaves. If anyone knows what remedy I should take besides raking leaves, please reply. Thank you Ruth Hi Ruth, Trees often die slowly, so it would be difficult to say if it's dying. I would think it would have to be sick for a long time to die. Take a look at this site to see if you can diagnose it. http://www.agnr.umd.edu/users/hgic/diagn/ If that doesn't help, try your local extension agency. http://ceinfo.unh.edu/state_sites.html For environmentally friendly products try these. http://ceinfo.unh.edu/state_sites.html Good luck, |
