Tree in question is Ilex x attenuata 'East Paltka'
Size - Thirty feet tall, twenty foot spread, multi-stemmed, about 25 years old.
Symptoms - heavy leaf drop and witches brooms
Question - What is the latest recommended treatment? Typically, we would prune out as much of the infected limbs as possible, sanitizing tools between cuts. (Yes, I followed that thread, too.)
Would a severe crown reduction prolong the life of this tree?
Are there any fungicides labeled for control of Sphaeropsis on holly?
