I am posting some pictures of my tree in hopes that someone will recognize what is happening. I checked the roots today and there is no infestation or any fungus. The roots are light brown to white and appear healthy. It is watered regularly and protected from noontime and early afternoon sunlight with a shading structure. I can't quite figure out what is wrong though. I repotted it in early march but did not trim roots because it was too late in the season. I also fertilized it with some slow release pellets but maybe I used too much?? I don't know. It is showing signs of new leaf growth although sparse at this time. Also, the bark is still green and so are the branches. Any help is greatly appreciated.
