Root rot is very frustrating to deal with. It seems like that specific spot is ruined. Maybe you can remove the other arborvitae’s and replace them with taxodiums which are resistant to it?
@@Joshgats20 That could survive, but i need evergreen trees in that spot for privacy. I think i'm going to try a mix of calocedrus decurrens, magnolia virginiana, and cephalotaxus harringtonia.
@@s3vR3x In short: You don't. Theoretically yew trees are the most resistant, so i have started planting more of those. Also, i am going to plant Nandina and clumping bamboo. Both of those should be very resistant to armillaria. I'm also going to try evergreen barberry to see if it's resistant like its nandina cousin. I will share my progress during these trials, but please note it will take at least a couple years to get some early results.
