Burnt Avacado Leaves

| I'm a newbie with some questions. Nice to meet all of you.
I recently bought two Hass Avacado Trees. One I kept at my place in coastal orange county CA (Zone 11). The other I gave to a relative in the desert (Zone 9b)just an hour away. Mine is beautiful and growing fast in full sun. But the one I gave away was fried after two weeks despite being in the shade half the day and watered daily. Every new leaf that came out fried as soon as they came out. Is it impossible to grow avacado trees in desert regions where temps sometimes exceed 100F with humidity levels around 25-35% normally. |

| I forgot to mention the desert region that the avacado tree died in was at an elevation of 3,800 ft above sea level if that matters. Thanks. |

| i grew a 3ft avocado tree from a pit. it was doing great while i lives in california then i moved out to nebraska and within days all the leaves fell off and died and now the tree just sits there looking like a skeleton. when i 1st got to nebraska it was below freezing so i kept it in the garage, then it looked like it died now the temp is up and iwater it and it gets tons of sun everyday and still nothing. and also all over the tree, like on the branch times there is some sort of white powdery stuff. what is that? did my tree die? or isthere something i can do for it??? |
