very special happened to the tree recently. Below it there is some dry leaves-covered ground, and (not adjacent to the trunk) a lawn that is also somewhat dry. Recently, the gardeners put a small amount of fertilizer on that lawn, but that had been done before without ill effect.
Any idea of what this is? Thanks!
