    i have a young Laburnum tree which is flowering beautifully and growing nicely but over the last couple of years the leaves are attacked and eaten by an unknown source which last year almost completely stripped the tree, is there something I can treat it with to prevent it from happening again this year. I have noticed that some leaves have already been eaten but  cant see any sign of what is causing this

  • The leaves on my Lyburnum tree are turning yellow and falling off is this a sign of the tree dyeing?, thanks. 

  • My laburnum tree has flowered every year ,but this year itwas the best ever,and now it has gone black and looks dead 

    any ideas

    When you say black, which bit is black? The seed pods are black when formed.

    Have you a photo?

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    My Laburnum tree has been fantastic this year, it seems to go in 2 year cycles (or maybe it's the weather!).
    Question. It is smothered with seed pods. Should I try and remove them?
    I'm asking this from a perspective of preserving the tree's strength rather than any issue with children eating them.
