K. deusta gets expensive

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

one of the few really bad fungi that goes under the radar all too often, its a hard one to detect at times.

 

ive had suspicions on this fungi before with no signs present, always check right down to an inch below the soil profile close to the stem, ive found it hiding real low on several occasions with nothing higher to give it away, very often there will be a hint of bulgaria canker starting to form above kretz infections.

I will get you some, we will hopefully get the job to take the rest of it down. the Kd was hidden in an included bark union which was full of aerial roots. probably about 8feet up.

Cheers Tom.

 

Look forward to the shots.

 

 

 

good luck with getting the job
