Note: Look for needle tip die back on junipers. This is a fungal disease that can be treated with soluble copper or a fungicide. 4. November work projects - Remember "fall back, spring ahead". Work on the internal structure of your trees now. Work on the branch ends and tips in the early spring. 5. Tonight's project - see 3 above, let mother nature do most of the work - pluck old needles and leaves after they stop working for you and loose their greenness. Most of our trees are not strong (healthy) enough to loose their working food factories. 6. Get your trees ready for sub zero weather - set your potted trees in a bed of sawdust or bark mulch with a shallow covering over the roots. 7. Reminder: Festive Dinner Thursday December 4, at 7pm.
