Hi,

I am new to Arizona and right away I planted my beloved Italian Cypress in my new place. Wihin a year I noticed the bottoms were turning brown. Closer examination revealed spider mite. Some of the tress have browing damage 1/2 to 1/3 the height of the trees (about 6 foot).

I have the spider mite problem under control now but wonder - will the bottom part of the trees ever be green again?

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.
