Owner's comments
I have two trees and both were affected by CAR. Significant infection occured mostly from nearby red cedars only 200 feet away. They have been removed so I am hoping for improvement next year. Leaves turned red early so hopefully this is just a variety that turns early and not a result of the CAR.Season records for this tree
