Q: Some of our magnolias have leaf “clusters”, that are turning brown . Could you advise us about possible causes?
A: I think the flagging is caused by black twig borer. If it was a twig girdler, you would have complained about lots of twigs on the ground and few in the tree….plus the twig ends would be more conical.
