Recently planted a young cherry tree, our first tree in front of our new home. Just the other day we find it infested with some kind of beetle. The leaves are all brown and , well, see for yourselves. Anyone know the name of this little villain, and a way to keep them at bay? https://www.flickr.com/photos/pixel-weaver/19537993586/in/dateposted-public/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/pixel-weaver/19537993506/in/dateposted-public/
