| A while ago I posted pictures of Live Oak trees that we have covering a log cabin out in the woods.
The large one on the west side of the cabin always gets it's new leaves a month or two later then the rest of the Live Oaks around the house. This is the one that has that funny hole in it and I was wondering if this late bloom would mean that it is sick or just because it is slow?
What ya think?

| if there are no other signs or symptoms or causes of stress showing, it's probably fine. The behavior you describe is not that unusual. But hard to say with any degree of certainty without more information. Where is the hole, exactly? Has the hole healed, or is the tree rotting from within? Is the root flair exposed? |

| 5pt.star We have 2 live oaks in front of house. One has lost almost all of its leaves and new leaves are emerging now. The other one on south side continues to hang on to the old leaves at this point. Sounds like you're seeing just the natural variance of the trees. |
