Japanese Maple Prob - June 12th, 2005 at 03:49 AM
Hello all! Haven't been around much lately-just been planting planting planting. Plus, I couldn't seem to logon, so I changed my name from rozy. Anywho.......at the end of the season last year, my neighbor gave me a small (3 foot) japanese bloodgood maple-it was still in a pot from the nursery-tags and all. Well, I planted it in the fall, and it started to come back nicely this spring, but over the last week or so, it seems like it's just burning up. The leaves are becoming brown and dry from the tips inwards. And I looked tonight, and pretty much all of the leaves are at least partially dead. There are some green leaves growing from the bottom, and those are doing OK. I have it in full sun. I thought it might have been a water issue, so I watered it for a long time the other day, but now it seems worse. Please help this tree! Thank you!
