Leaf Scorch Even though trees — especially Texas trees — need the sun to survive, leaf scorch is here to advise us that there can be an overdose of something that is otherwise good. The most widely recognized cause of brown leaves is over-exposure to the sun, known as "leaf scorch." It's practically precisely what it sounds like: a sunburn on your tree's leaves. It will manifest in various ways from one tree to another.

You may be enticed to frenzy and start watering your tree all the more regularly. However, this could cause different issues. Instead, proceed with a proper supplemental water regimen and trust that the tree will recover freely.

During periods of heavy precipitation, skip the supplemental watering. You don't need the soil to become water-logged or for long-standing puddles to shape at the base of the
tree. Your tree should start to spread its roots and flourish. If you keep on seeing issues, connect with a professional tree care provider.
