Comments (10)well??? others might argue.. but frankly.. in my experience.. and dad has had them around forever.... if it wasnt bald in the middle... it wouldnt be called a nest ... lol and its a function of maturity .. as it expands out.. its natural inclination ... it leaves the middle bare ... wait until lit fully flushes out .. snip out any totally dead nubs .... and try to convince yourself.. it looks cool that way ... and if you cant deal with it.. time for them to go ... i wonder if they are in full sun.. that close to the house .. and if not.. that might be a complicating factor ... i do NOT believe it is bug nor disease ...and besides the cleanup.. there is nothing you can do about it ... other than divest.... ken...See MoreJon 6a SE MA
