This storm was really bad for oaks in our area. Hubby and I are planning to replant, but are debating trying a different tree. We realized last evening that the live oak we planted after Hurricane Rita (2005) is dead too. It's about 12' tall and was blown over. I guess it broke the roots loose or something. Hubby braced it back up the day after the storm, but the leaves are brown and dead.

At least our fruit trees weren't harmed. What's a good shade tree that bears fruit?
