what can I do to help my yews? #866075

Asked April 27, 2024, 10:36 AM EDT

This is the second spring that my yews have presented like this in the spring. Do you think this is from rabbits or deer? Is there a food/chemical supplement that I can treat them with to give them a boost?

We will need some details and a picture or two to give you some ideas.
Can you tell us-
How long they have been planted there?
What exposure is the problem- east, west, south?
Is it all on one side? One area ( low down, or high up on the plants?)  Evenly spread through the plants?
Do you see torn or sharply bitten branches?
Do the shrubs get watered, especially late in the fall? 

Please add a picture of a whole shrub, and one or more showing the damage.
