Message: My California lilacs have brown leaves and before they turn brown they have a grayish film on them. I'm not sure what the problem is or how to take care of it.

Message: I've just moved into a property and have one of these shrubs in the garden. It hasn't been looked after and pruned back. It was very tall. I've just pruned it right back. A lot of it was dead and dried up. I have now notices it has new leaves coming on parts of the branches but the stems have got green (looks like disease) all over them is there any thing i can do to save this shrub or get rid of the green?

Message: Can you advise which Ceanthus will be fast growing to replace a tree that has blown down due to age, unknow variety. The birds loved sitting in the branches, we have left it on the ground because they still gather there to feed from the bird feeders.
