Sick leafless avocado tree (forum)

1 responses

Susan starts with ...
I planted a small grafted avocado tree a few months ago and it has since lost all its leaves and looks very sick. Is it salvageable? I have sprayed it with white oil and copper fungicide on separate occasions thinking I might get lucky but it doesn't seem to respond.

Root-rot most likely. Start again and plant in a large raised mound. Literally place the avocado on the ground and mound up soil/potting mix around it.
