Another tree dying in my garden

Hi

I have had two trees getting dry in my garden already. A magnolia and a honeysuckle, which is really strong, so I was under the impression there was some disease around my garden

I have noticed another tree with the same symptoms, it is getting dry, and the shoots are totally strong and dry

I’m desperate for help as I know that once this tree is finished, then, another one will follow order

what can I do?

 

Hi can you add some more pictures so we can all see what's going on. I can't tell to much but it does look similar to my crabapple and cherry trees this year and what I believe happened to them was a combination of hot early weather before a cold snap. I think they came into leaf to early and them the cold frosted them back. It's hard to say if it's what you have but it's not the first time I've had this happen and it just knocked the trees back a bit. I have new healthy growth on the trees but if yours are different then it's one thing to cross off your list.

 

Looks like its been hacked back a few times, maybe disease got in, any idea what kind of tree it was.

 

Nope, they are gone, there are some leaves still alive but in one month time they will go too

Regarding pictures, let me know what you want to see in the tree and I will upload those

thanks

 

According to PlantNet, ceanothus arboreus

What I’m after is which disease it can be as it is moving all along the garden

 

If it was Ceanothus I can only say they are short lived and one of those dying is not unusual.

 

It looks a bit congested there with lots of trees/shrubs all trying to get to the light.

 

The only broad-spectrum 'diseases' that come to mind are Phytophthora root rot and Honey fungus

Have a read of the links and see if the symptoms correspond. There are also quite a few shrubs that are intolerant of being pruned back into old wood, Ceanothus is one of them.

 

What can I do to fix it? All the leaves belong to the same tree

 

none of the symptoms apply here. For me the most significant symptom I have seen in all the trees is that the shoots are heavy, as if they were part of the branch itself as they were sturdy

 

So its still alive then?

 

I hope so, one of the main branches is gone and the second one is starting to have problems but the leaves are still green and I have some flowers, but if the root system is done, it’s a matter of time the leaves become brown

 

I dont think its something anyone can solve from a picture, personally I'd cut back to good wood and see what happens, get the dead stuff out of the way.

 

How is the soil?

 

crap, it’s Milton Keynes, which is famous for the clay soil
