I planted a wheeping cherry tree in May and it had a few green leaves on it until about end of July. I water it as I should, but I'm concerned that it has died. Is there any way to tell if it's dead or should I wait it out? There's little green shoots on it so I'm not sure.

Weeping Cherry Tree:
- The new growth I see on the tree is an indication tht the tree isn't dead.
- Whenever any tree is transplanted into the ground, it goes into shock.
- Depending on the tree it can take several months for the tree to start growing new leaves.
- This tree needs to have plenty of sunlight in order to thrive and grow correctly.
- You need to keep the soil well drained for this type of tere.
- Also, you need good air flow around the tree to prevent diseases.

If there are little green shoots there is still life in the tree, I would wait it out and see how it does. Im sure the leaves just fell off maybe due to the stress of moving or perhaps they are supposed to fall off and will again grow in the spring.

Your tree is alive! I see green shoots all over. Keep doing what you are doing.
