<div dir="ltr">Hi Everyone:</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br></div>
<div dir="ltr">Recently a landscape designer told me that she has been using hemlocks for awhile now without problems.  This makes me wonder if the woolly adelgid is less of a threat these days?  I have reluctantly avoided installing hemlocks, but would love to, if they had a chance of success.  Any updates on the status of this problem?</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br></div>
<div dir="ltr">Thanks for your help.</div>
