Acer Palmatum. Roughly 20 years old. Last 2 yrs. has lost leaves early and now has lots of dead twiglike branches. Was told to leave it last year and feed it in spring. Situation is bad now. Fungus was mentioned as the cause. There is also a False Acacia near with the same problem and on BBC Gardening same tree with film was shown. Fungus was given as reason. Is this the same for the Maple and is there any hope?
