dylan5588 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Hi, I was out walking the dogs today in a regular spot of woodland, a mix of hardwood and conifers, Now in the hundred or so acres of woods there are several Mountain ash trees usually laden with berries, this year not one tree has any and there is evidence of leaves dying off, could this be down to "Ash die back" and has anyone else noticed this happening in their area? Also who should be notified of this? environment agency? the woods are owned by the council, but surrounded by forestry commission woodland.

Toby Posted September 5, 2014 Report Share Posted September 5, 2014 I dont think chalara affects the rowan or Mountain ash as it is a a Sorbus as opposed to a Fraxinus.The symptoms you describe could be a number of issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have reported it to the forestry, with details of the symptoms and supported with photos, they are in the process of investigating. they also said it is unlikely to be Chalara.
