I planted this white oak several years ago and I am noticing browning at the edges of the leaves. I can't tell if it's frost damage, or from the strong wind afterwards.

Most of our native coastal oaks have stiff leathery leaves within a week of leafing out, but these white oak leaves are delicate like tissue paper. It takes some getting used to.
