I have a driveway hedge of James Stirling (approx 20 yrs old) that has deteriorated in the past 6 mths. It was trimmed up in March, other than that we don't touch it. I believe the middle tree is dead and I can see the 2 on the left deteriorating and drying out rapidly. What has happended here? Can I save the trees on the left and prevent this happening to the 2 on the right?
If there have been no changes to the water levels, no chance of chemical run-off or neighbour disturbing the roots it seems most likely cause could be an insect or fungal infestation. I recommend taking a sample including leaves in a sealed plastic bag to your local nursery and hopefully they are able to identify the culprit and help you with an action plan.
