I planted theis tree around 4 months ago. It is around 15-18 feet tall. I am in South Florida. The tree got beautiful green leaves and red all over. IT is beautiful, but just noticed some leaves on the lower half are going yellow. We have been getting plenty of rain and if no rain it is getting water from the sprnklers/bubler. Does it need fertilizer? PLEASE HELP...dont want to loose this tree. Here is a pic thank u
It's normal for older lowers leaves to senesce as the tree grows. You can fertilize but be certain you have adequate time before the first frost in your area. Say 90 days.
