I live in Round Rock and have purchased 4 trees from Ted's which they installed. Cherry Laurel, Red Oak, Chinquapin, and Live Oak have been installed. My Red Oak looks as though it might have Oak wilt ... its what I feared the most in planting it. I would suggest a Chinese Pistache because of its hardiness and resistance to any diseases. I will be planting one this weekend. Green and Growing in Pflugerville is the best all around nursery I have found in Austin and its surrounding areas.

I missed the original post, but all of those trees are usually available
at the Natural Gardener.

If anyone needs any native Privett trees, I have some hyooge ones on my
property that reproduce by the dozens every year. :-) I dig them up
when they reach a certain size and pot them. I'm saving them up to make
a hedge, but I have a few to spare.

I also have a young chinaberry in a pot, as well as a few squirrel
planted pecans.

I'm in San Marcos

I'd say it's highly unlikely, but if true, make sure to remove the
tree and dispose of it properly. Red Oaks (shumard is most common at
nurseries) are the trees that allow the fungus to form fungal mats
that sperad spores, and should never be left standing.

If a red oak does contract oak wilt, it will be completely dead in a
matter of weeks. If this does not happen, your problem is something
else (maybe bacterial leaf scorch?).

How long ago did this tree go in? Most nurseries (I assume Ted's is
no exception) will guarantee their products for a year, so you may be
entitled to a replacement.
