Plant Diseases - sick japanese yoshino tree


Expert: James Shellenback - 7/2/2009

Question
Location: Upstate Saratoga County, N.Y. This tree was planted approx. 4 years ago, this spring, noticed a abnormal growth, some branches had buds that did not develope. Then other leaves were under develope. No visible insect or bug infestation. All leaves are green and now some are now geting a slight yellow pigment. No spliting/holes in trunk. After speaking with a garden rep. His recommendation was to implement a "PLANTONE" nourishment/fertilizer, There has not been a significant improvement, 4 weeks after said application, the leaves are starting to wilt and some branches are exibiting weakness.  I need to know how to resolve this problem.
application, There is new growth which has sprung from soil alongside the trunk.

Answer
When the phloem and xylem are blocked with fungus or bacteria there is a nutrient tie  up resulting in a lack of nutrients translocating to the branch tips.  You may have this problem.  When you fertilized it may have only made it worse as sometimes it has an enabling effect on the very problem your trying to get rid of.  Then we see abnormal growth in unusual places as the tree is trying to repair itself.   Your problems are systemic.

There is a new product on the market called Atomic Grow all natural.  It is a plant enima if you will.  Very systemic and will go in through the leaves and systemically cleanse your plants and trees.

This product will not only solve your problems it will make your plants and tree photoworthy with super health.
