The Tree is Dead II

The oak tree died in December 2008. I increased water supply to the tree, but it was not enough.

I blame myself for not getting it enough water. I also blame myself for planting near eucalyptus trees. I had no idea that they put out toxins in the soil to kill competitors and were such water suckers. This may be what killed the oak and the pine trees. Or it may have contributed to their demise. I found this out in October 2008. I tried to get more water to the oak, but it just wasn't enough.
