    this tree was planted in mid to early may. it was in a 5 gal b&b.when planted it was blood red and beautful. once planted it began to turn green and the edge of the leave began to brown and become crispy. soon complete limbs would become crisp and lose their leaves.it does have some new growth that is very red, but all in all looks pretty bad.

    Can anyone give me some advice?

    Yeah, buy three more just like it

    that way you will have spares. Seriously check to be sure that it drains well and that it is not planted too deep.

    and when you are doing that check if the root ball is too dry or too wet
    The tree is obviously stressed for one reason or another
