the transitory effects of sunlight...

frost is variable [though a bit early for that] ...

drought during the summer effecting the part in full sun.. worse than in shade..

hallucinogenic drugs on the viewers part.. lol

Ken, I guess I will just have to get used to you...but I'll bet you get that a lot. Yes this looks just a little different from the usual but it could be the mushrooms.

what mushrooms... ??? not the facts in this post ...

bottom line.. all i am trying to do is help ...

Many reasons from exposure to unadapted plants to problems in the root system or it might be normal for the species. Investigate a little more. Good question.

hallucinogenic drugs on the viewers part.. lol

it could be the mushrooms.

did the yellow leaves appear before or after the 'shrooms????

what a hoot

Now you're on to me..LOL. But seriously this tree has been here for many years, planted before I bought the house 12 years ago. It is tall, deciduous tree with a beautiful shape and is very attractive to bees. I will get out and take a picture because I have obviously forgotten the name of this (common) tree. It did have a girdling root, which I had cut several years ago, and the past 2 springs has been "used" by sapsuckers, which is not too thrilling. I know that some trees experience "decline" and I am concerned about the several suddenly yellow limbs when the rest of the tree was still green. Will post pictures for more help. thanks.

Now I'm having a conversation with myself here - I think it's a Linden tree. Had some time to spend Googling and that's what I came up with and I think that is what the arborist said that was here several years back. :)
