How to tell if a tree in your garden is diseased
Trees can easily thrive with the millions of microscopic organisms that make the tree their home and thus it is rare for a tree to be completely disease-free. Some trees, however, cannot fight off particular types of disease and when this happens you may see some signs:
- • Defoliation – leaves falling when they should not be doing so
- • Branches looking dead
- • Decay – crumbling wood or fungus
- • Leaf blight -dead spots on the leaves
- • Root decay
- • Fungus in bark
- • Missing bark
