I recently wired a juniper (the common kind you get at the nursery)

closer to the trunk I'm getting dead spots.

On ALL branches? What percentage of the branch (50? 20???) is
going brown.

I don't know if this could
be do to the weather (I doubt it because my other smaller trees are
thriving) or something else. Any ideas?


Not weather in zone 9. How often do you water? As Iris says,
the tree should be dormant (even in z9) now. It will need much
less water, and junipers don't need much, anyway.

Did you repot?
