[QUOTE="Boehlertaught, post: 2568426, member: 14520"] There's a nasty thing called hypeloxin canker (sp?) that is killing lots of oak trees around my place. It tends to attack mature trees more than young trees. The Coweta OSU extension looked at our trees and diagnosed the fungus. OSU said all oak have the fungus but become really vulnerable to it when stress issues get to the trees. And the last two summers have been a key to triggering an outbreak. OSU said to keep the trees watered and fed. Feeding is regular fertilizer like 10-20-10...not a high nitrogen fertilizer. Also, oaks don't like change. Landscaping around oaks and covering the ground around their trunks can smother their roots. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
