Growing Healthy Trees 

This class will introduce common tree diseases and insect problems found in the Yakima area and provide the tools to identify, prevent, and/or treat these diseases and infestations.  Information will also be provided on common problems found with specific species, such as anthracnose in sycamores, and regional issues, such as disorders caused by heat.

Growing Healthy Trees is part of the Yakima Area Arboretum 2016 Tree Care Workshop Series with Arborist Sean Tait and Arboretum staff.
