when i worked for the local council a few years back the same thing happened, i was charge hand of the tree squad and had a line from the tree officer to remove yews in a church yard that he had marked and treat the stumps with roundup, adjacent yews started to die off grafted root systems were to blame spoke to the tree officer about it a month or so later and that was his theory i dont think there is much you can do

are there different strains or do some trees just have a higher tolerance of the disease? some trees around here hang on for years showing signs of dutch elm where others seem to die really quickly.
-
it is caused by an elm bark beetle which carries a fungus i think !!! when i first started in tree work any dutch elm timber was removed and supposedly burnt but now they reckon that the beetles are long gone and onto their next victims by the time the tree is dead !! yes the clear up was awful i stayed up the the tree as long as possible lol !!

It was a magnificent tree and will be sadly missed, loads of people were taking photos of its final days. Unfortunately it had succumbed to Dutch Elm and had been dead for about a year.
-
A very large elm, quite interesting, had huge lower limbs coming out just a few feet from the ground. Made climbing easy, lol!
