Any ideas why tree looks like it's dining?

[Timberman675]

Hi, just wondered if anyone knows what could be wrong with these trees? it's going brown on almost every branch

[10 Bears]

Perhaps its trying to impress another tree with a fancy dinner date?

Coryneum canker is my guess

Can't see the pics too well but it looks like a lawsons to me which don't get corynium canker I believe.

Hmmm, I guess the 'biggie' with L. Cypress is Phytophthora (see attached), well certainly the most current issue...that I'm aware of.

 

Obviously as with all cypresses you get "inner-foliage" browning through being shaded out but new growth but if its external, and prevalent, its more likely to be something like Phyto.

Nope, you got me on this one!....

I suggest stand back if it asks for one more wafer thin mint, buckets at the ready.

 

cheers, steve
