How long has the bark looked like that? That's your biggest clue, in my opinion.
Follow the source of the green (different shaped) leaves to the trunk and remove the growth completely with clean clippers. You'll likely find it...
At this point, it will be what it will be.
Some die back over time of the underside branches of dissectums can be normal, especially those receiving little light. You can carefully remove...
Agree, Paxi. May be time to interview for a new gardner.
It sounds to me like the tree got too much water, probably as a result of your husband's instructions to "keep it moist all the time." Two times...

Please describe where the container is positioned. Or post a picture from farther away showing where you keep the container in relation to house,...

I could be wrong, but a three foot wide root ball for a 12' by 8' Bloodgood probably left a lot of key roots in the ground. Not sure of the...
I don't know, but it sounds risky to me and you might want to experiment this year by trying it on ONE tree that you wouldn't necessarily miss...
