Tip Blight on Junipers

9 years ago

I was told my junipers probable have Tip Blight. They are in a well drained area. Random steams have been dying for years. In the Past, I've just trimmed off the dead steams; but his year has been the worst. I would like to cure them so no new steams will become infected. They are 25 years old. Does anyone have a suggestion on what I should do?

Thanks for any help you can give me.
