- Folks, if you have leyland cypress trees, then you've probably noticed that at times, part- or all of the trees- may turn brown. There are several different factors contributing to the browning of your leyland cypress trees, and in this video we explain these different scenarios that lead to the browning of your cypress trees and we tell you what you can do about each condition.
I had a Leyland Cyprus that turn all brown and I tried everything to save it . My conclusion was that Spider Mites had killed it. It was about 7 feet tall so I dug it up and replace it with another one, putting the "dead" tree by a shed, on top of the ground. About a month later after a hard rain, I saw some green on the "dead" tree that was laying by the shed. I thought is this thing coming back to life? I went and planted it with some water and it did come totally back to life, all green top to bottom. I call it my Lazarous Tree.
Dang, that’s awesome 👏🏾😂
😂😂❤
Awesome!
You’re very underrated.
I’ve been trying to grow my own, for privacy.. every time I have an issue, I end up on your channel lol. Just good genuine information.
Your reaction at 4:44 is classic! I give that same look at our property and have planted 60 Leyland Cypress to block it as well. Damn mufflers are getting ridiculous these days. Great video thanks for the tips, we having yellowing on a few and will implement your knowledge.
Omg I don't know if you know this, but your video is beyond amazing and helpful.
Oh thank you!
Great presentation! Thank you. I live in Oregon in a heavily, federal, doug fir area. I have logging trucks zipping by one right after another. Noise control it won't do much, but dust and dirt it helps. Our biggest problem in last few years have been drought and fires.
Excellent video! We have planted several of these on our fence line and will use the helpful tips to try to save them. Thank you for your concise, and practical video showing us how to ID the cause and what not to do as well as what to do. Excellent video post.
Thank you! This was so helpful. I’m planting 3-4 ft babies. I’m so excited.
This video gave some great advice and tips for my leyland. Thanks!
Thanks for watching Carol and thanks for the feedback!
I'll give my damaged tree one growing season to come back. Great presentation; many thanks.
Darlene Dranda sometimes miracles do happen...
pour lots of water around the tree watch what hapens im talking buckets full
Down here in northeastern SC we had a very wet spring and summer until mid August when it went dry for about three weeks. Mid way into the dry period, four of my Leyland's turned pale green, then a few days later started turning brown from the inside out and bottom up. These trees are 4 years old, about 6-7' tall and seemed very well established. The land where they sit is well drained, sandy soil. They all made it through Hurricane Florence.
I'm hoping I can save these beautiful trees with the information I've learned from your great video. Thank you!
I hope so too. Take care down there.
Thank you..... GREAT GREAT GREAT INFORMATION.. so u know.. I planted the LC 15 years ago.. all was well until I got a new neighbor. I did not realize it at the time but his sprinkler was hitting my trees and sure enough the back of the trees just what you said happened, the rusty leaves... and your information about why not spray with a pesticide is a great help.... Are you sure your not an ornamental horticulturists.. ? :-)… Thanks for your experience...and sharing your knowledge ...the photo that's Thor Military Police Dog retired like me now in Heavens waiting room...….Florida.. LOL.. Thanks again
Awesome explanations of a few of the issues I've seen with my trees. Thanks so much!
Very easy to understand, thorough explanation!
Thank You,this was really helpful and I learned quite a bit. Oh and also I miss that pretty green landscape from VA. It's not quite the same in terms of greenery since we moved to TX. My Cypress started browning on the sides last year and is now browning on the sides and the top, not sure if that meant we were too late but I appreciate all your tips. Thanks again.
Great easy to understand explantation of leyland's problems. We are planting some this weekend. its good to know what to watch out for!
Great informative video. I have a Leyland Cypress that is about 2 years old and suddenly this summer branches keep breaking and hanging down until they fall off, they are breaking more than half way out from the trunk. If anyone has any ideas or info about why this may be occurring , I'd love to hear about it.
i had several of these leyland cypress trees i bought about 35 yrs ago at 5$ each never lost a one lived there 25 years they were huge giant christmas trees 30 40 ft tall moved 7 years ago had to leave them now i have 6 abiut 5ys old about 6 to 12 ft tall they love water drought will ruin them as well as some tree diseases
Alot of great information. Answered many questions i had. Excellent video. thanks!
When my leylandi hedge goes brown I thrash the brown area with a rake. A lot of dead brown stuff comes out with dust. The hedge recovers later.
i have 6 leland cypress all 5 yrs old i have 3/4 in water line with a sprinkler head at each tree coming from my well the first is about 10 ft tall #6 tree about 6ft tall the moral of this is they love water about 1 yr ago i conn another water line to #6 and back fed the water from 6to 1 so as the water supply got lower the trees grew slower also i have not had a browning issue that some people talk about so pour the water to them they love it zone 8 south carolina
Wow..such a wonderful explanation with examples ..very good
Excellent, I'll try your advice on our Cypress on the Central Coast of California
Thank you very much, finally some useful information.. great intelligent well done.😊

Good video thankyou for shareing. I have 5 now large 10yo lylien cypress they got trimped down at the end of summer& now there turning brown like you showed ? Plus the pos humans that are behind me took there wood fence down & now i think there trying to.kill them ? We keep them feed with holly tone & trimed up. I hope they DONOT die off we have to take them down 😬😵😭😢
Excelente video!
Wonderful informative video....Thank you!!!
I’m beginning to wonder if these trees are worth it.
I wonder what the percentage is of trees that actually grow mature and healthy
These trees are the worst tree in the world to plant in a yard!
Three out of three in my yard have been a total pain. I worried and fed it over them for about seven months now. They started changing color within a month. Each month it’s getting worse. First I was told I wasn’t watering them enough for being new trees even though they were already 5 foot tall, they needed to get their roots rooted. And I was told maybe the holes were dug too deep and the ground wasn’t holding water and was going down into a cavern. Then I was told that the big tree that was in the yard might be overwhelming the new trees because of its tremendous root system. Therefore the new trees were not getting enough water. However for other trees that are alternatingly planted with the Leland’s, are doing just fine. Lelands were a good idea on paper but not in my yard LOL huge waste of time and money and my emotions.
My experience is very positive. Over 90% survived. 4 season climate.
I’ve gotten about 18!years on my. This horrible freeze in 2022 Nashville may have killed them all 😢
All brown now.
Excellent video answered all my questions thank you.
I have been watching this poor tree for about 10 years. The worst of all was that my neighbour insisted that it was healthy, because a lot of ivy was growing on it, litelally strangulating it.
I even thought that maybe it was the ivy's fault! It's growing so well, giving the person looking at it a HEALTHY look...
Would it be possible to save it, getting rid of all the lvy?
That would help. Yes, the ivy will strangle it out.
Wow. Thank you for your suggestions and advises. ✅
Thanks for video. Hoppe it's natural die back my trees 7 years old.
Good stuff.
What if it turns brown like #5 but it’s in the summer… we are getting little rain but I’ve watered it. Was transplanted in January and beautiful until about a month ago. Do I give it a season? Will the brown ever turn green again? Prune off the brown?
I planted mine really close to my garage about 8yrs ago. Now its MASSIVE!!! Will the roots damage the foundation or driveway??
Get rid of the tree....they are not good for anything but problems!
Benjamin Hale can you please tell me why you’re saying that? I just bought 4 of these from Walmart & I thought they would be easy to maintain...What problems did you have with them?
Leiland cypress don't have invasive roots.
Excellent resource. Thank you
Thanks
Welcome
very good effort
Hello Sir. I just planted 6 fert leyland cypress. Some of them wilting although last night raised well. Do you think did i do compact backfill? Or did I underwater and it takes time to recover? Thank you
That was a great video! I was just wondering how much water should you have at the trunk of a tree? I have a drain pipe from my kitchen sink that runs to a tree is that too much water? If you see water on the ground around the trunk is that bad? On tree is a cypress and the other is a pine.
thank you for the info. A question, it appears only the bottom of my trees are effected by the browning. The middle and tops(30-40 feet high) look green and healthy.
Under inner browning is usually caused by no sunlight due to branches of leaves that canopy, thus causing the browning
I planted several on both sides of my property. Once one fell on my neighbors car. my neighbor took it well. I planted them too close to chimneys on both sides. So i need to start cutting. I'm looking for cool things to do with the branches and wood. For example blinds from the neighbors, benches, I looked all over pinterest but can't find anything I like yet. But I'd like to top off the trees so a rogue fire doesn't burn us all down. Could I cut them all down to about a 16 foot level and ise the branches and cut wood to make a better fence? i planted them so close to the house because i was dealing with abusive neighbors on one side. I just happen to crash one of the trees on the GOOD neighbor. They handled it very well.
Thanks for the great info!
How long does it take for the roots to establish?
Thank you for the info...
Very helpful thanks.
Great video, thanks.
Oh, Hi Kevin, what you are doing here? I was just looking up how to ID Leyland Cypress and surprise SURPRISE!! How are yours doing now - August 2024? I planted a couple I grew from seed about 5-years ago and the one has to be getting towards 10' tall & in danger of suffocating an apple tree - if I cut the top out of it, will it hate me forever, die or just look UG Lee? Cheers, G
It will live and perhaps get fuller
Thnx for informative video.
My issue with mine is the ends of needles are browning, but it's widespread and uniform on the other one. Never had it before. It almost seems like it's from weather related issue since it's only been since winter time and after very cold weather?
I have giant aborvitae that have a same browning or more of a yellowing on one side only and green on other side and its really on sun exposure side as well?? So this is something else going on. Almost like the sun exposure side is being affected, but why? Lack of chlorophyll? Never in past though. So is there something else coming from atmosphere?? The cedars and spruce shrubs aren't affected by this though? What's going on??
Thanks for the help, could you help me with my Italian cypress tree. My tree is brownish brown from the middle down, only the tip is green. What should I do?
Pls Help me!
very informative.. thanks!
excellent video.
My leyland Cyprus are really bad. Looking the neighbor on their side cut them down really short there is no greenery left. They are looking worse on my side now do you think possibly my homeowners would pay to replace this?
I don’t know if it’s fungus or not. Also I can’t reach the top of the trees
Excellent video ! Thank you!
Can I prick the bottom of a Leland cypress slightly to promote a knew branch ?
Hello we have green giant trees. We need some help we have a green giant that is under 3 yr's old it was green last year during the winter time it is turning yellow from the top down. As far as we can see there is no damage on the tree. Can you help us with that please?
The abervatia Lyons is turn brown at bottom looks there on way out. Have idea what should clip off brown
The deer aren't eating those cypress?
I have blue cypress ornamental and never get a grip on how to grow them.
How do you save the rest of the tree after moths get some like half of it. I took a hose to it and sooooooo many moths came out of them :(
I have a green emrald arb I want to transplant. Right now it is against a privacy fence and dead on that side for lack of sun. Transplanting to full sun. So the question is, will the dead side fill in once it gets sun?
I had calves accidentally come into my yard and took out one side of my Leyland Cypress. I had to cut those branches off at the trunk. Will new growth occur where I cut limbs? Trees are 3 yrs old. Thank u.
Thank you for this video. Great information!!!
Appreciate this video!
Any ideas on why they get droopy. We just planted some in a planters. Very big planters. And we were told to water it every day for the first year. But I’m starting to feel like maybe that’s a bad idea. Any suggestions?
