    Verticillium Wilt Japanese Maples

    We are seeing signs of declining Japanese maples here in the cape. I haven’t gotten a call from any of my clients yet but have noticed the state of some of the maples just driving around. Foliage is sparse on some. Could be verticillium here too.

    Tree Mek tips from experienced owners and operators

    The only issues i have are with the western star truck. I’ll be bringing it to the dealer soon for a leaning airbag and an air leak (possibly caused by the bag). The air tank pressure leaks down from 125 to about 50 psi in two days. The crane itself has been great! No issues yet. Pretty simple...
