The horse chestnut tree from Hampshire has been infected by a bleeding canker that is a virulent new disease that appears through Britain's much-loved conker trees.
Unfortunately, almost half of the tree population has died because of the bacterial disease and yet there is no clue of how the bacteria enters in the tress and spreads all over the places.
There are some tragic ideas about how this uncontrolled illness will destroy one of the most iconic British trees and will leave a scar in the land as well as the Dutch elm disease that destroy the native elm population.
Although, The Forestry Commission has been working in order to find a cure and save the horse chestnut tree. They have called to start working so what happened to elms trees does not occur with the horse chestnut tree. The sooner they find a how the bacteria work, the better the investigation will go.

Hi Claudia,
Too bad for the trees :(
it would be great being able to give them a pill or some kind of medicine...maybe a shot... so they could in 24hours be fine and perfect as always. Unfortunately is not that easy.
Fine Article.
Take care!
