Ash - early leaf drop

Recommended Posts

There seem to be a lot of bald-looking ash around here, some seemed to have dropped their leaves before the end of August and a lot of the others aren't far behind.

 

I've not looked closely and am presuming it's a case of them 'thinking' its autumn already rather than pests or diseases. Any thoughts as to what is triggering this? The relatively cold / damp summer I guess??

 

I've not had time to look in here for a while so if this has already been discussed, would someone mind pointing me in the direction of the relevant thread?:001_smile:

Giles,

Any other signs or symptoms, such as bark necrosis or anamorphs, of Chalara fraxinea ?

I've seen a few funny looking Ash recently, but round here most trees seem to be turning early especially, Lime, Beech, Syc, and some ash. Early Autumn i think, a least we had a good summer :001_rolleyes:

 

noticed quite a few ash over here also (we had a crap summer)
