Weeping White Spruce (aka Picea glauca Pendula)

Posted by gr8redoak 5 (My Page) on

We planted a weeping white spruce in our backyard about 2 years ago and half of it has been turning brown. Wasn't sure if we needed to supplement it with fertilizer, etc. Any suggestions??

Also, when the cones appear on the tree, are you supposed to remove them or let them remain?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

Check the bark for tiny holes. Sound like borer beetles to me.
Get a systemic bug killer (BAYER ADVANCED) Tree ans Shrub protect and feed. This stuff kills the bugs INSIDE the tree. Leave the cones alone they will fall on there own. Hope this helps sorry I did not see your post sooner.
