I live in Toronto. In mid Apr this year, I bought a healthy looking small Stellar Cherry Tree and planted in the back yard following the instruction that came with it. About 1 week right after planting it, the weather got cold (1-3 degree C at night) for about 2-3 weeks, then weather was warming up. It's been 2.5 months now but the tree does not have much leaves. Some of the baby leaves that were there before turned brown, especially at the top of the main branches (even the branches' top parts look like dying/drying out).
Is there anything you can suggest i should do to get the tree to be healthier? There's still leaves but not much. I was thinking of fertilizing it but not sure if that's a good idea for baby tree? If fertilizing is fine, can you suggest what fertilizer i should use, and how much/often should i fertilizer it?
Thanks in advanced for your advise!
