Ohia trees are dying rapidly, Why?

[pahoated]

This thread is from 2013 and it was first noticed around south Puna then. In fact, it sounds like it started from a very small area around Pohoiki. It is still concentrated in south Puna but now being reported into Hilo. This is a great opportunity for a large scale spraying of fungicide by helicopter over Pohoiki, the center of the infestation. Killing the center might slow the spread.
