Yellow Leaves on River Birch
 

I planted a small River Birch Tree in February. The tree was flourishing
with new green leaves in early Spring. Now the leaves are turning yellow and
falling off. Anyone no why? Am I over-watering? Not enough water? Do these
trees just do that? I live in upstate South Carolina.

Please advise.

Yellow Leaves on River Birch
 

Yellow Leaves on River BirchI have planted two river birch trees and have had the same problem. It always seemed to happen when I was not watering enough. One time the tree lost all its leaves, but came back once I got on a regular watering schedule. Once both trees were in the ground for a few years this problem seemed to go away.
