Default Problem:- Thuja Plicata Atrovirens

Thanks for the quick reply

I can appreciate the water problem, as during the summer there wasn't much
rain in manchester

i know that maybe hard to believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Although since the beginning of september I think we may have our fair
share.

If they are dehydrated will they recover?



I have just done a quick check on "red spider mite". It appears that as we
come up to winter that, if I do have them, then they should

disappear with the cold/damp weather.

Any more advice will be gladly appreciated

But since the beginning of september I think we have had our fair share

Hello,

I have a hedge made up of 20 Thuja Plicata Atrovirens which was planted
about 2 1/2 years ago.

I have notice over the past month the foliage/leaves are starting to go
brown on 1/2 of them.

Do I have a disease, or something else.

If I have is it curable or have I lost the hedge.

Ant help would be gladly appreciated


I'm wondering if it's just lack of water in the long, dry spells or
whether
you have checked closely for red spider mite? Certainly, new hedges need
watering in dry weather.
