Anyone have any idea what's causing this? Red spider mites? Fungus? Too dry? Too wet? Dog-vomit slime mold??!
Our weather here in Pittsburgh was hot, wet, & humid for first part of summer, now cooler & dry.
For the record, I also have in this landscape bed an azalea which looks dead, probably from very poorly dranined soil, which hopefully I've amended. The mugo pine is just 4 or 5 feet away, but further from the house than the azalea.

This was planted about 2 1/2 years ago, and had been doing beautifully. I don't want to lose it! :-(
