Our muskogee compared to our tuscarora on the other side of the yard didn't grow as much if any. It has these yellowish marks, maybe watermarks? The very few buds that there are are wilted and yellow. The Muskogee sits right in front of one of our watering spikits so it gets hammered when we water our lawn after reseeding our zoysia (watering 3 times a day for 2 weeks).
Can anyone suggest any treatment or any way to save this tree for the summer blooms? I can't tell if I'm overwatering or underwatering and know that the wilted look can be similar. Don't want to have any root rot and loose my tree!! THANKS!!!
The picture I inclucded shows the slight yellow spots on the leaves...Most branches have no new growth this year. White spots on the leaves are dead bugs from an organic pesticide I used for the lovely Japanese beetles!!
