First, thanks for your thoughtful and helpful posts on this group. Great to
hear from you.

Second, a question, I live in the North SA area, and had a Texas Red Oak
planted in my yard about four years ago. Although it is always healthy, it
has not grown much at all in four years. I did as much research as I could
to ensure I had a Texas and not a Shumard, and I'm pretty sure it's a Texas.
And, I got it from a great nursery in my area.

My thought is that we put it in an area of too much rock and the roots can't
grow. There are no roots coming up to or above the top soil, however. I'd
drenched the area a few times with Medina Soil activator and Hasta Grow, but
not much difference.

Any thoughts on this?
Thanks~!
