How can I tell if my tree is suffering from the drought?
Common symptoms include: wilting of the leaves and small branches, smaller or partially dead leaves, thin canopy, out of season changes, heavy flowering or fruiting, dieback and branch death. Keep in mind that these symptoms can be caused by other things; contact an arborist if you are concerned about the health of your trees. http://www.isa-arbor.com/findanarborist/findanarborist.aspx
