Q.fig tree branches look scorched and snap off
Fig tree and the ends of the branches look scorched and snap off – they are obviously dead, but why? I have an established fig tree in my back garden. I have noticed today it doesn’t have as many green leaves as usual and the branch ends are black and brittle. They snap off easily and are obviously dead. I don’t know why. The leaves on the tree appear as normal, some of the figs on the black branches have died and shriveled.
Figs can be troubled by several issues.
Here is a link that may help you pinpoint the issue.
