I have 3 bald cypress in my yard in Allen. All >8" in diameter. I have 1 that is sick. In fall 2013, after an arborist took a look, we exposed root flares and removed some girdling roots. Applied sick tree treatment. In 2014, the leaves broke and were light green all season. looked like it needed a big shot of iron. The other two trees look healthy and the leaves are med-dark green. Spacing between the three trees is 20-25'. The sick tree went to fall color early under the stress of the summer heat. Unlike the other two trees, all the leaves didn't drop. My plan is to apply the sick tree treatment as soon as this weekend. I haven't sprayed the trunk/foliage in the past but I have the equipment to do it. Any other suggestions?
