Glasgow Daily Times, Glasgow, KY - Pay attention to landscape disease

Glasgow Daily Times, Glasgow, KY - Pay attention to landscape disease: "GLASGOW — The effects of the 2007 drought are widespread and landscape plant diseases are yet another area Kentuckians should pay close attention to as they prepare their gardens for spring.

Many home gardeners and landscapers may be familiar with leaf scorch symptoms associated with dry weather. During the 2007 drought, leaves of drought-stressed plants, while wilting, closed their stomata, which reduced their rate of photosynthesis."
