Temperatures are creating the perfect conditions for boxwood blight! Find out what you can do to protect your landscape.
Boxwood blight thrives during periods of high humidity and moisture. We are currently experiencing high humidity after a lot of rain; this has created the perfect breeding ground for this pathogen.
We have personally observed the beginning phases of boxwood blight. These symptoms present themselves in the form of:
1. Leaf defoliation
2. Leaf spotting
3. Blackened stems
1. We are actively monitoring current client properties for blight detection.
2. We are managing the disease by practicing preventative methods, including sanitizing tools and equipment before and after handling boxwoods.
3. We are only sourcing boxwoods from trusted growers in the Boxwood Blight Compliance Agreement.
4. We are educating our staff and clients on a continual
basis.
