The bald cypress is a low-maintenance tree with easy fall cleanup. Chlorosis is a yellowing of normally green leaves due to a lack of chlorophyll. After feeding, the caterpillars hide in bark crevices and other protected areas on the ground and change into amber-brown pupa inside a loose cocoon. Its fall color is a coppery red. Mites can be particularly troublesome in dry summers without irrigation, causing early leaf browning and defoliation in mid to late summer. Adult beetles are small (approx.

Iron and manganese are needed by plants to form chlorophyll and to complete photosynthesis. Management Recommendations: To reduce the number of galls in a new season, rake and destroy the fallen leaves and galls. Then, as the temperatures drop, the needles turn to a warm coppery gold. When present in excess, these elements cause some trees, particularly oaks and maples, to take up inadequate amounts of the micronutrients iron and manganese. Recognition: Needle blights are fungal diseases that are capable of causing new infections on trees throughout the growing season.
