Big Trees in Trouble

Tuesday, July 15, 2008



Many Oaks, Ash and Sycamore are suffering from serious health problems. Giroud Arborists are particularly concerned about a growing incidence of fungus diseases such as Anthracnose and Bacterial Leaf Scorch. The warning signs include: early leaf drop, die back in the crown and off color or contorted leaves. If you spot these symptoms, please call us for an inspection.

I think all my neighbors with the Sycamore trees that line the street may have a problem, all the leaves fall off early in summer and then start to regrow but not as healthy looking. Sounds like the Anthracnose Problem??
