In the last few years we have witnessed increasing numbers of pests and diseases infesting our landscape. Some are new to our shores, others resident for a long time, but now most are more prevalent due to changes in our weather patterns. We will inspect the infected plants and assess their pattern of die back, as well as leaf, stem, fruit and bud symptoms. If the on-site diagnosis is not conclusive, we will take photographs and collect tissue samples to be sent for DNA testing. Once the cause has been identified, we can recommend a cure or method of control if possible. Should removal of plants be necessary, we can recommend a replacement and carry out the planting.
