Well I should update you on this.
I actually wound up losing 3 of the trees that were hit. When I went back to examine the branch it looked like it had died and then broken when the wind got to it. I wonder if it was a verticilium problem and maybe the spores got to my trees, or maybe the trauma of the shock from being hit, but I did not know that plants were susceptible to a physical kind of shock like this even though they looked okay.
I had a beautiful dogwood just dry up over the course of 2 months. It was imported and quite nice, one of my wife's favorites.
I also lost a Japanese Styrax (egonoki) and one other tree.
Regards,
Matt
