New apple tree has sagged leafs

Hi, I'm newbie gardener. We planted apple trees last fall. And this spring it started nicely leafing. then few days ago we had a storm after which leafs started drying out on the apple. The other apple tree looks fine. Apple was planted into the anti-gopher basket, there is no visible activity of gophers around it. Ground is mostly sand, which makes over-watering not likely. And I water that tree the same amount as the another apple which actually survived. Anyway, I tried to put around the tree roots a miracle grow and water when I first saw sagged leafs. It did not help, leafs continue to dry.
The storm was coldish, for few days daily temperatures were below 55, and of course, since I live at 7000 feet we still have daily freezes.
Can you give me any tip?
