If you happened past the Nebraska Capitol last week, you
probably noticed containers hanging from the trunks of
several trees. You may have concluded that Gov. Charles
'Phone and his family were going to enjoy maple syrup made
from the sap of those trees.
Hut if you investigated the trees more closely, you would
have discovered that the trees are pin oaks, not maples. And
those jugs weren't collecting sap, they were filled with a liquid
that was draining into the trees.
According to head groundskeeper, Warren Andrews, nearly
all of the pin oaks on the grounds around the governor's man
sion and the Capitol have a disease called chlorosis. Chlorosis
is an iron deficiency that affects many pin oaks in this area.
John Fischbach who runs a tree and lawn service said that
chlorotic trees have yellowing leaves, often with green veins.
Left untreated, the branches eventually die, and death of the
entire tree occurs an average of five years after the onset of
I he disease.
Fischbach assigned treatment of trees
Kischbach is treating the sick trees. He developed a
method to treat chlorosis in which jugs filled with a solution
rich in iron are hung from the trunk. The solution drains into a
hose that encircles the trunk at the base of the tree, where the
roots are exposed. Fischbach drills about seven, half-inch
holes into the base of the tree. The hose has an equal number
of outlets for the solution. These outlets are plugged into the
holes, and the solution is left to drain into the tree.
Alter the tree has absorbed the solution, Fischbach fills the
jugs with water twice, to flush the solution into the trees. He
said that on a warm summer day, it requires about an hour for
a gallon to drain.
Fischbach said that after the treatment, the pin oaks leaves

should show improvement in seven to ten days, and should be
completely green in 30 to 45 days. If they aren't, the tree gets
another treatment.
The pin oaks treated this year should be healthy for three
to four years, Fischbach said.
According to Kischbach chlorosis is prevalent in Lincoln,
and affects trees all over Nebraska. It can be caused by ex
cessive amounts of lime in concrete sidewalks and driveways
near the trees, he said, because the lime seeps into the soil and
changes the phosphorous rating of the soil. lie said that some
times enough iron is present in the soil to prevent chlorosis,
hut the tree may have difficulty metabolizing the iron. The
problem may also be genetic, Fischbach said, because some
trees in Lincoln have never had the disease.
Trees won't grow out of it
Trees cannot recover from chlorisis on their own, Fisch
bach said, lie estimated that nine out of ten pin oaks in Lincoln
t hat have the disease are untreated.
Fischbach said that tree owners need not worry about
harming their trees by having them treated. He said that the
holes he drills have a slight wounding effect, but that they usu
ally seal themselves in about 24 hours. If they do not, Fisch
bach seals them himself with a caulking compound or with
corks.
About 75 percent of his business is treating pin oaks, Fisch
bach said.
Andrews said that this is the first year that Fischbach's
method has been used to fight chlorosis in the pin oaks around
the Capitol and the governor's mansion. He said he has tried
treating the ground with ferrous sulfate and inserting iron cap
sules into the tree trunks, but these methods did not work well.
Some of the trees he treated on the Capitol lawn showed
greener leaves in two days, Fischbach said.
Fischbach said maple trees can get chlorosis, but he hasn't
tried his treatment on maples. He said that he has used his
method to treat chlorosis in pin oaks for about four years, and
that he guarantees results.
