    I have a Maple tree in my yard that the bark is splitting on the branches and the leaves are all wilted and have been falling off for the last month. It was like this last year as well. I'm not sure if it has some sort of disease and what I should do about it. Can anyone give me some direction?

    Thanks

    Hi.

    Your picture is a little small to tell what is going on. If you can post some larger pics, maybe including a close up of the leaves and bark and an overview of the whole tree, as well as more info such as size and age of tree, you have a better chance of receiving an answer.

    Here is a link to the OSU index of maple diseases which might be of assistance.

    Good luck.
