Serviceberry Tree Leaves Are Turning Yellow And Dropping

Question From: M. Seagraves - GEORGIA
Q: My service berry tree is losing its leaves. Turning yellow and shedding the leaves, We have had more than 12 inches of rain! The tree has good drainage.

A: I don't have a crystal ball. Take photos of the tree and bagged samples of the affected leaves to an independent garden center or nursery for and ID and control. Better yet, if the shrub/tree is of great value in the landscape get an onsite inspection from a certified arborist. To find one in your area go to tcia.org. Best Nancy and HappyYardening
