Winter Damage
To Ornamentals
Many homeowners in the
area are beginning to notice
that some of their plants do
not look as nice as they did
last summer or fall. Some of
the things they aie noticing
are yellow or dead tips on
evergreen branches, especially
on yews; boxwood plants that
are bronzed or bleached yel
low; burned leaf margins or
scatteied dead spots on ever
green leaves; cracked stems
and dried-out buds, especially
azalea flower buds; and plants
that have been killed back to
the ground.
All of these things are good
indications that winter damage
has occurred on the plants.
This winter damage may
have one or more causes.
Many df the affected plants
were in a state of poor vigor
from the effects of poor cul
tural conditions, prolonged
drought or failure to become
sufficiently dormant before the
onset of winter.
While all plants are dormant
in the winter, they are still
alive, and loss of water from
leaves continues. Rapid fluctua
tions m temperature plus dying
winds and full sunlight can re
sult in the loss of water from
plants faster than it can be

replaced from the roots. This
results in the drying out and
death of plant parts. Ice and
heavy snow loads also cause
mechanical injuries such as
cracking and splitting. Very
low temperatures can also
“fieeze out” lender or maigm
al plants.
Where winter damage is
severe, the dead plant portions
should be removed and new
growth' encouraged by good
cultural practices. Plants with
bronzed or slightly burned
leaves will usually put out
new green leaves to replace
the unsightly ones. Dead flow
er buds will not be replaced,
however, until the next season.
Gray Blight of
Rhododendron
Rhododendrons with winter
damaged leaves are beginning
to show signs of gray blight
colonization. Gray blight is
caused by a fungus that is a
secondary parasite (Pestalotia
macrotricha). Leaves must be
damaged for infection to occur

margins of the damaged leaf

well-established.

If gray blight is an annual
pioblem, steps should be taken
to eliminate damage to the
leaves during the winter.
