Identifying a Diseased Tree: What to Look For in Spring

Post Copy

Spring is when tree diseases become visible. As new growth emerges, you start to see the damage that winter stress or dormant pathogens left behind. Discoloration, leaf curl, cankers on the trunk, or unusual patterns of dead branches all tell a story about a tree's health.

The problem: by the time the damage is obvious, the tree is already compromised. Early detection is everything. A professional arborist can spot trouble before it becomes terminal and recommend treatments that can save the tree.

Not sure if what you're seeing is normal or a red flag? Send us a photo or call us out to look. Free assessment, honest answers. That's the Clear Cutters commitment.

Have you noticed anything unusual on your trees this spring, or any that aren't looking as vigorous as they should?
