We have a problem with a stagshorn. We have 4 in the back garden, 3 are ok but the 4th looks like it is dying. The leaves look like they have been burnt and are wilting. Please help as my wife loves them.

No it's not close to the lawn and I never use a strimmer by it. Will try to put a pic on later.
Is the poorly one more exposed than the others - does it catch the wind or frost more than them? I've seen tender new sumach leaves really badly damaged by cold weather, especially if the leaves opened in a warm spell and then the weather turned cold again.

Hi Diamond you have stags horns ..Sumach. I had one in my garden and it was lovely but threw suckers up all over feet away in the end we had to dig it out. I would not worry about one looking ill, soz but I'd be worried how much the other three will spread.
