Fungus Disease Threatens Sycamores in Maryland
Plant pathologists at the University of Maryland warn that sycamores in the state show frost damage signs but the main problem is a fungus disease, likely anthracnose or blight. Trees exhibit brown dead vein areas on young leaves, defoliation, twig ends killed, and small cankers, worsened by damp weather. Control is difficult this year. pruning diseased wood and burning leaves help, while copper fungicide sprays are advised from the bud stage every 14 days, demanding strong spraying equipment for large trees.
