First Signs of Tree Disease

  • Discolored bark.
  • Changes in leaf color
  • Twig dieback
  • Spots, holes, deformed leaves
  • Premature leaf drop

Many signs of disease can be similar, from one type of disease to another. And determining what disease you are dealing with – and knowing how to properly treat it – can be a challenge.

To receive the most positive outcome, it is important to seek the guidance of an experienced arborist.

Fungal Foliar Diseases

Fungal foliar diseases, such as Anthracnose, Needlecast, and Cedar Rust, pose significant threats to tree health by infecting the leaves and reducing the plant’s ability to photosynthesize effectively. These diseases manifest as discolored spots, distorted growth, and premature leaf drop, which can weaken trees and make them more susceptible to other stresses.

Tree Vascular Diseases

Vascular diseases like Bacterial Leaf Scorch, Bleeding Canker, and Dutch Elm Disease impact the tree’s vascular system, blocking the flow of water and nutrients within the plant. These diseases can cause rapid and often irreversible damage, leading to wilting, dieback, and eventually, the death of the tree. Vascular diseases require prompt and aggressive management, which Rick’s Certified Arborists provides through accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plans.
