Forsythia are deciduous shrubs typically growing to a height of 1–3 m (3 ft 3 in – 9 ft 10 in) and, rarely, up to 6 m (20 ft) with rough grey-brown bark. The leaves are borne oppositely and are usually simple, though sometimes trifoliate with a basal pair of small leaflets; they range between 2 and 10 cm (0.79 and 3.94 in) in length and, rarely, up to 15 cm (5.9 in), with a margin that is ...
Leaf spots can vary in size, shape, and color depending on the age and type of the cause or pathogen. Plants, shrubs and trees are weakened by the spots on the leaves as they reduce available foliar space for photosynthesis. Other forms of leaf spot diseases include leaf rust, downy mildew and blights. [4]
Fall is the best time to fertilize your lawn if you live in the north. Cool-season grasses, such as bluegrass, fescue, and ryegrass, respond well to feeding in early September and late fall (end ...

Dry leaves, along with dry grass, dead plants, wood chips, shredded paper, and sawdust are examples of carbon to place in the compost. Oxygen or green material includes grass clippings, produce ...
Leaf scorch (also called leaf burn, leaf wilt, and sun scorch) is a browning of plant tissues, including leaf margins and tips, and yellowing or darkening of veins which may lead to eventual wilting and abscission of the leaf.
Wilt diseases in woody plants tend to fall into two major categories, those that start with the branches and those that start with the roots. Those that start with the branches most often start with pathogens that feed on the leaves or bark, those that start with the roots start with wounding or direct entry by the pathogen into the roots, some ...
The plants may recover during the night when evaporation is reduced as the stomata closes. [2] In woody plants, reduced water availability leads to cavitation of the xylem. Wilting occurs in plants such as balsam and holy basil，and other types of plants. Wilting is an effect of the plant growth-inhibiting hormone, abscisic acid.
