My tree is ten years old, and about three years ago it started to have issues. I have sprayed several times with Bayer Insect, Disease, and Mite control, which helped in the past, but now seems to do little.
When that happened to a tree of mine we discovered - after it was removed - that it had initially been planted incorrectly. The roots were still going round and round just like they were in the pot. They should have been loosened and spread out when it was planted. They literally strangled themselves. The tree grew and bloomed for about 10 years then it went downhill and died.
Minds are like parachutes; they work better when they are open.
. I hope others will chime in with some ideas for you.
