P:I have an American tulip tree in my garden and I don't know how to care for it. What diseases threaten him, with what and when to fight them? How to cultivate cinquefoil? In spring it began to grow beautifully, and in mid-summer the leaves withered and began to wither.
O:The American tulip tree is resistant todiseasesandpestsIf something happened to it happening, it is probably a reaction to inappropriate environmental conditions, as this tree grows very well in sunny places, onclay soilsor loamy-sandy soils, fertile and sufficiently moist, slightly acidic.It feels best on the banks of rivers, streams or other bodies of water. In drought conditions, especially when it grows in dry areas, the tulip tree should be watered abundantly.
The tulip tree grows quickly and becomes quite large. In our climate, it can grow up to 30 m in height. For this reason, it is not suitable for small home gardens. This tree does not like pruning, so you need to think carefully about where to plant it so that its crown does not interfere in the future. It blooms at the age of 15-20.

To find out, the cinquefoil must be dug out and its condition checked. The roots should be firm and without any signs of damage. Otherwise, the diseased or damaged roots should be removed, and the entire root ball should be trimmed a little, while at the same time shortening the above-ground part of the shrub. Thanks to this, we will keep the proportion between both parts of the plant.
