Hello,
We had several trees planted in our very tiny Ontario, Canada backyard in October 2012. The two largest are sugar maples, and they are both planted within 25ft of each other, and receive the same sun/water/etc. One of them seems to be unhealthy, with slightly furled, brownish leaves. As we have a warranty for one year, we would like to know if this is a problem, or just due to it being a newly planted tree. I have attached picture below.

We were told at first just to water it more, which we did. We don't see a change. Also, both trees are in the same environment, so I would think they would react the same.
The person we purchased them from told us to scratch a bit of bark of with our finger and look at the tree beneath it. If it's green she said it is okay, but if it is yellow then it is dying. I have never heard of this, so would like your input if this is correct.
Appreciate your help!
