Q. I have an ash tree
which appears to be dying. I am considering taking it out but would like to
have someone look at it before I do.

A. The usual problem here
with ash trees has been a disease called ash decline or ash dieback. I have
posted questions I received regarding this problem on ash trees along with
pictures of what it looks like and what to do if you have it.

Send some pictures to me of the tree showing the problem
when you see the problem. I need close-ups of the leaves as well as a picture of
the entire tree. Look at the pictures I have posted here or on my blog to
confirm it. This disease is quite easy to identify from pictures.

If you are certain the tree has this disease it should be
removed. There is no cure for it.
