My maple tree leaves have black spots over them and it’s losing leave like crazy. ( submitting this question a second time as I miss typed my email address)

How to remove large areas of oxalis (yellow flower) in lawn before resodding or reseeding

My English oak is starting to get brown spots on the leaves. Can you please advise what you think is happening?

Many of my perennials and shrubs did not make it through the winter. I have found these very bright (almost fluorescent) stringy roots throughout my mulch and soil. They appear to be very invasive and I think it may be what has killed off many of my plants/flowers. I can not find anything like them on the internet. I believe it possibly came from bad mulch. Can you identify this? Harmful? How do I get rid of it?

Is it too late in the season to put out a bee hotel to attract wild bees?

Is it a stag beetle or June bug / May beetle or something else? Hundreds in my flower and veggie garden and yard.

Hello, we have very heavy clay in our yard, including under an established lawn. Is there something that we can put on top to help break up the clay and promote drainage without damaging the grass? Would something like pelletized calcium sulfate help? Any other suggestions? Many thanks! Danielle

Hello, I live on a wooded lot in with many old (~100 yr) oak trees. Late last summer I saw some moderate crown die-off in one of the trees and this spring our local arborist confirmed damage from two-lined chestnut borers. While he said the tree would not definitely die, the prognosis was not great. He suggested that imidacloprid (Merit) could be used to as a potential last-resort treatment. My question is how I should best apply the insecticide, as I feel a bit overloaded with information. Some suggest applying directly to the tree about 4.5 ft. up while the Merit label suggests a soil drench or soil injection. I have never done a soil drench before but am willing to try if it could save the tree. Do you have any tips for this? Are there any unintended consequences from using it? I am aware of its impact to pollinators and aquatic life, though we are not near water and the oaks have already flowered, so I expect minimal impact on that front. I am also all ears if you think there is an alternate way forward. Thank you, Steve

My 9 year old Vermont maple suddenly dropped many very dry leaves, on a windy day last week. Is it a disease or could it have been caused by the late hard frost we had in early May?? Is there anything I should do?

Can anything be done to eradicate mushrooms. I have more every day. They appear in clusters, too many to count. I also get really big ones that have a large hard base, that I dig up. None of my neighbors have them. Info on Internet says it's a sign of a healthy yard. The weeds think so. I believe I have every type weed possible. Please help
