Hi Everyone,

Im in East TN and have several ornamental (non flowering) cherry trees in my front yard. One of them started looking a little worse for wear so I had all of them sprayed by a local company. However, it only seems to have made it worse. The tree now barely has any leaves and some of the limbs are breaking off in light wind! I have found a couple of critters around but don't think they are involved (at least my google search didn't reveal anything). Im attaching several pictures of the ailing tree as well as it brother (sister?) literally 20ft away that is hale and hearty. Any idea what is wrong with the tree, and how I might go about saving this beautiful trees life?

Sorry if Ive formatted things wrong this is my first post here as Im getting quite desperate as nothing has worked to help this poor tree...

Thanks in advance!

I would have a certified arborist come and look at the tree. The insects are a June Bug and I think a Crane Fly. The larvae of both eat grass roots but are not the cause of your tree problem
