    I just planted a Bing Cherry Tree. It blossomed and then the leaves started to show stress. I took a leaf to a nursery and I mentioned it was planted in horse manure which may be burning the tree out. I have been spraying the tree with herbicide and fungicide every week for the last three weeks. It is starting to die again even the new buds are showing signs of browning. The leaves have browning in the center of the leaf. SOme stems have nice green leaves.

    Whats going on any way to save the tree. I live in SOuth Eastern Wa. The weather here is ideal for Cherry Trees as it is very dry and hot.

    spraying a cherry tree with a herbicide might be the biggest problem.
