what about birds of paradise. Both large and small. Should I trim down to base?
Karen Ruth says
I have a 12 year old live oak tree that has dead leaves on some of the branches. I don’t see any new leaves sprouting to date. Is there something I can do to hopefully revive it?
Thank you,
Karen

Nothing you can or should do. Live oaks drop their leaves this time of year and put on new, but not on a uniform schedule. Not to say your tree might not have a problem, but more likely just the expected seasonal shedding.
