Trees, Shrubs and Conifers: What happened to this viburnum? Part 1, 1 by LAS14

OK, here is the first of the pictures you requested - a cross section. I didn't cut the whole main branch because I have seen other trees/bushes recover after complete leaf death (birches and Siberian pea trea). So I have hope.

As to your other questions. My hubby and I both believe it just went black, but couldn't swear to it.

Definitely no heat stress. This is a record breaking cool summer in Maine. Our lettuce batch still hasn't bolted!! It's September 3rd. Also, remember that the leaves are leathery, not crispy.

Let me know if this close up isn't close enough. I'm still getting used to this digital camera.
