Most of the leaves that grew indoors have become how should i say this wilted and brown (looks as through the leaves have been burnt if you know what i mean). Any suggestions? If you bring a tree in full leaf from the inside to the outside the tree have not adopted to strong sun and lack the important wax layer that protects the leaf. There migth been some sun burn. You need to slowly bring the tree in to sun from full shade. Cut of the dead juniper branch or jin it.

[IBC] Trident maple and juniper problem
Hey guys,
I decided to switch my trident maple i got a few months ago to a larger training pot so the trunk will grow. Problem is I made the switch and now it seems to be dying, i have it in a large pot and i have been watering it normally. Billy is probably right, and here is a major part of the problem. "Watering normally" is exactly what you do NOT do right after you transplant -- even to a larger pot and assuming little root disturbance. Rest assured that roots WERE disturbed when you moved it. It just can't take in the "normal" amount of water and the roots, as a result, sit in soggy soil. And then, as someone said, moving it right outside into the sun reduced the leaves' ability to transpire -- keeping even MORE water in the soil. Check the roots as Billy said, then move it into the shade, give it a light feeding, and do NOT water until the soil feels dry!

Also i have a small juniper and it looks nice except for one branch has become completely brown, should i snip it off? the rest of the tree looks fine, but hasnt had really any new growth? Any help would be great. -- Mike Mike: I have my studio in the suburbs of Philadelphia--when simply went from winter to summer. );-) Trident: Defoliate the tree and place it outside in full sun to produce a new crop of leaves. Do not overwater this tree in its defoliated state. Juniper: Remove the dead branch, but check the root pad. Unexpected branch death can be the result of root rot. If you find rotten roots, follow the procedure as described in the email about the Sageretia, which I sent to Dunk. If you are concerned about your Trident, contact me off list and we can chat about your tree over a call.
