I'm having a heck of times with my Wisteria in my backyard arbor. I moved to the house last summer and was fine for the most part. This summer it is loosing leaves already like it is late October (I have to rake every couple of days). The leaves are turning yellow/brown and falling off. A local nursery said it was spider mites and suggested I use Malition (sp). I did that a few weeks ago, but I think the problem has gotten worse. The other day I tried Isotox. Any other suggestions or thoughts would be appreciated. I live in Chicago and the vines are about 7 years old according to neighbors.

i live on the tn/ga state line , although it is nearly fall- i am looking into having palms in my yard. does anyone know of any palms that would grow well in my area or sites that would help? thank you!
