Leylandii Dead Patches
My Dad has some 7-8 ft leylandii that were cut back a couple of years ago and have never grown back properly. A local "tree person has said he can cut them back again and spray them with something that will make them grow back. Is this possible? Or just a con to get some money out of the old boy.

That sounds like a con. Leylandii don't grow back once you've cut back past the green. -- Kay "Do not insult the crocodile until you have crossed the river" |

It's a con trick. Don't fall for it. Franz |

It certainly can't be a good idea to cut them back further but, I'd give them a bit more time to recover. Last year's long dry summer wouldn't have done them any favours. This year's long wet one might. :-)) -- ned http://www.bugsandweeds.co.uk |
