Phytophthora ramorum in Cedar???

[Mr. Bish]

I'm looking at a semi mature cedar that to mee has no good reason for dieing but is practically gone.

 

Has anyone ever come across sudden oak death effecting Cedars?

(Yes there is a Rhodi bush underneath)

 

Thanks,

 

Chris

I had more dead cedars in the past year than 10 yrs previous, might just b coincidence though

I sort of need to give an educated answer and come up with a treatment of sorts as there are two fine mature cedars just over the road from this one that died.

fell them, and burn them, same with rhodi bush too

I've seen honey fungus kill cedars pretty quick, especially in 'well cared for' lawns. Check for loose bark at the base with white, fan like mycelium below it.
