what would make a cedar tree turn brown?

1 Answer

Answer :

Your cedar tree is probably too wet and it is drowning if not dead.  If it is small, pull it and be sure to have very good drainage before you replant it.  Some areas just do  not have good drainage, period.  Nothing will improve it.  Cedars are hard to kill. South Texas is full of them - wild.  Carlie
