Dry winter conditions, warm days when the ground is still frozen and chilly winds can all pull moisture from foliage, leaving broadleaf shrubs and trees vulnerable to excessive moisture loss. Since the plant cannot draw moisture from its roots in frozen ground, the leaves can shrivel up, turn brown, and die. In severe cases, the entire shrub can die from desiccation.
If your shrubs or trees are susceptible to winter burn, have been under drought stress, are recently planted (within the last year or two), or have suffered from pests, disease or other damage, then an anti-transpirant treatment is strongly recommended.
