Should I be worried?

Hi everyone,

We bought a Cornus Florida rainbow tree about a month ago and it looks a little distressed. I’ve done a little searching online and some people say that it can look like this for a few years. Is there anything g else I should be worried about here?

    Cornus need damp soil … it looks pretty dry there … I’d give it two buckets of water every other day in this hot spell, whether it rains or not. 😊

  • Ok, I will try that. In the winter it’s actually pretty wet there but not at the moment. I have been trying to water it regularly but maybe not enough.
