Problems to look out for.
« on: August 11, 2010, 09:16:42 PM »
In case you've not been following the story - these two problems are worth keeping an eye out for:
'Sudden Oak Death'/'Ramorum Blight' is now thought to be spreading aerially through conifers (Larch) (it was spreading by water droplets through rhodos and viburnums), and Citrus Longhorn Beetle has been found in the UK again (affects a wide range of woody plants).

No cures for either.
