Question
Do you know who I could contact in my Reno NV, maybe someone at the University, to have them come and look at my Lelands? They are about 4 years old and the ones on the North side of the house are turning brown except for the tops the others were growing great until this year. They are getting brown in the center. I don't know if it is bugs, watering, weather etc.  Thank you

Answer
The State Forestry main office is ask for the Forest Health Specialist..
Main Office ?Nevada Division of Forestry
2478 Fairview Drive, Carson City, NV 89701
Business Phone (775) 684-2500

They have Regional offices but I do not know how they are set up or which one Reno falls into. Here is the web page link to their regional Office numbers. You should find their phone number in your local phone book.

He is associated with the NV Division of Forestry, Urban Forestry program. I think he is in Elko, NV
