Beech Leaf Disease

Beech Leaf Disease: A Growing Threat in the Delaware Valley
Understanding Beech Leaf Disease
Beech Leaf Disease (BLD) is a new and rapidly spreading problem in the Greater Philadelphia area. This disease, caused by a nematode, affects American and European beech trees, causing leaf deformation, canopy thinning, and eventual tree decline.
Symptoms of Beech Leaf Disease:
- Dark, interveinal bands on leaves
- Curled or leathery leaves
- Reduced leaf size and canopy thinning
