Got Scorch?

Posted on August 23, 2012 by Phil

Leaf scorch is showing up on the tree leaves of aspen, maple, linden pears and evergreens.  The leaves will look spotted of burned along the leaf margins.  The plant simply cannot take up enough water for its needs under harsh summer conditions.  Once leaf scorch is present, there is no cure except management including monthly winter waterina, and deep, infrequient watering during the growing season.  For more information:  www.ext.colostate.edu/pubs/garden/02911.html
