Well, this is a little bit of good news I guess, and I'm glad to not be the only one trying to grow japanese maples in the Texas summer heat. I'm in Arlington, Texas.
I have two trident maples that made it thru last summer so I do beleave it can be done.
Also, I have 5 other (6 if you count my airlayer) maples that live all around this one and have yet to suffer like this.
I dont know the names of these trees yet, I just call them all japanese maples, but only the sick one ever had red leaves.
My last post had the wrong photo, this is the soil, should I change it now? It has worried me ever since I got this tree.

Allons, Randy
