IT WAS JUST TRANSPLANTED? Transplanting can cause shock with exactly
those symptoms. A tree that has been transplanted should be kept in
shade and watched carefully until it is transpiring normally.

Verticillium is a terrible disease, and people should be ready to
toss out a diseased tree with no regrets, since if the disease
spreads, it willl mean greater heartbreak. But don't be hasty, folks.
