Leaves Turning Brown

Question

I have a Japanese maple planted in a pot. Bought it about 2 months ago and planted in the pot. I have this sitting beside my patio, it gets mostly afternoon sun, on west side of house. It started doing the leaves turning brown, I tried both water more and water less and it still is not doing well. It is still shooting new growth out. I’m at a loss see picture, thanks!

Answer 1

There is no photo but it likely is getting too much strong sun. Can you set it on the east side? Or provide some shade for the afternoon sun?
