    Young Nuttall Oak Struggling - Small Leaves & Scarce Foliage

    We bought this tree in April 2017 (its now 8-31-17) and planted it the same day. Im attempting to find why its struggling.

    Oak tree distressed - is it too late?

    I have a 24-30" oak tree that was oozing at the base of the tree. This started back in Spring and early Summer. It was so much that it had a small puddle at the base. As I recall the color seemed to be gray at the puddle. Now the oozing has stopped, but I have noticed some voids in the bark...
