May 15, 1995 pathogenesis
in boxwoods consult.
This is an outline
of etiologies that can individually or can concurrently contribute to
pathogenesis in boxwoods.
In my practice as
a property manager, landscape designer and horticultural consultant, 1974-1999,
I had done a number of boxwood consults.
Boxwoods remain
first among equals as to some of my favorite plants. In addition, a 31-foot
tall and 22-foot wide Buxus sempervirens on my farm, is a big tree champ in
Maryland.
After a consult
in 1995, I took it upon myself to compile and loosely organize all my sources
into a spiral bound notebook for easy access. This is the result of that file
maintenance.
I might add, this
information has been compiled and assembled from multiple documented and cited,
and undocumented and uncited sources over many-many years – no claim to
original authorship is either claimed or implied. If anyone feels there is any
breach of copyright, this is not my intent - so please notify me so I can
correct the error. May 15, 1995 – April 12, 2014 kevindayhoff@gmail.com
