Re: Mr. Monarch

All this talk today about the Million Dollar Monarch has got me thinking about our August 15 story about Oak Wilt. Trees can account for as much as 20 percent of the value of a property, and you can take a huge hit on the selling price of a property with the loss of even one tree.

What’s even more scary is the way diseases like wilt spread. The roots graft together and even by just touching one another, they can contract the disease.

Like a tree STD.
