Forestry Commission Can you diagnose this slow decline and dieback in an Abies grandis, please? Pics November 2023. The tree was in my local park; it has subsequently been felled.
Forestry Commission Are regulations to safeguard UK forestry and horticulture against imported diseases and pests in harmony with the intention to identify/develop/encourage tree and plant species nationally and internationally which have developed resistance against (other) diseases and pests?
Forestry Commission Are there any rays of hope emerging at all in the research and monitoring of Ash Dieback, eg many resistant trees? #PlantHealthWeek #TreeHealth
Forestry Commission From a non-twitter user: 'What is the most likely cause of stem dieback in a containerised Betula utilis subs. jacquemontii'?
Forestry Commission Also: what is the biggest disease threat to UK trees that isn't here yet?

Forestry Commission What will be the state of UK native trees by 2050 if we don't change our management practices?
