My son has six of these trees. The top branches are turning brown, and there is black mold forming on some of the trunks. One tree has been left with just one green branch. He has an automatic sprinkler system, and I tend to think this is caused from over watering. I suggested he aerate around the trees if this is the cause. However, the person who planted these advised him they probably lacked nutrients. I have no pictures at this point but would appreciate any comments you might have. The lilies behind the trees have formed a red rust on their leaf surface. Thank you very much.
