Weeping cherry and flowering peach tree dying.WHY? I have a weeping cherry and flowering peach tree, both planted 2...
I have a weeping cherry and flowering peach tree, both planted 2 years ago contained by a new garden. Soil is sandy/clay, added soil conditioner and some out-of-date lawn clippings at planting. They are both surrounded by lots of roses and on reticulation. Soil is moist, roses look impressively healthy and flower in profusion. Both trees looked stunning last year, but the peach tree one and only came hindmost with 1/2 branches this spring and the cherry flowered but is very soon rapidly dying next to leaves browning and falling, branches wilting. Roses receive regular fertilising with dynamic lifter/roses. I sprayed both trees surrounded by winter with mangoceb(?) could this hold caused problems? Could it be the roses? Do these trees inevitability acidic or alkaline soil? They are surrounded by a northern aspect, full sun. They do receive wind but the peach lone came posterior half after winter.. however has some unusual shoots growing. Ideas?? We are in South Western Australia.. and I am at a loss of what to do!
Answers: Did you marine them deeply formerly the cold weather set in? If they looked right in the crash down and they died in the winter it could be dehydration. A severe root fungus could do it too. Ifyou wet too much it will encourage abiding root fungi.
Hi, My dad has these and IF any of his trees start to LOOK close to they are dying....he right away cuts them down to the ground but leaves the root and covers it completely with mulch and a FISH type fertilizer. NO sharp.
