Signs of Poor Tree Health or Tree Disease

If you’re not an environmental expert, it can sometimes be hard to know whether the appearance and growth of your tree is normal or the sign of a serious problem. If you’re ever concerned about the health of your trees, contact a professional at Wheat’s immediately! Here are some signs to watch out for:

• Altered growth or development: This includes yellowing leaves (unrelated to the season), stunted or reduced growth, and premature loss of leaves.
• General death: This includes blight (death of foliage or stems), dieback (progressive death of branches, starting at the tips), and wilt.
• Localized death: This can emerge as cankers, rot, or decay.
• Insect or disease damage: Sometimes, it is obvious from holes, discoloration, or strange growths that an insect or fungus has been feeding on a tree’s leaves or bark. You may also notice the actual pests themselves on parts of the tree.

If you detect any of these signs of poor tree health, or if your tree just doesn’t look the way it used to, give Wheat’s a call at 703-641-4790 today!
