My Yesterday Today And Tomorrow The Leaves Turned Light Green Then It Looks Like Purple Then All Leaves Fell Off, But The Plant Is

not dead it’s trying to sprout again. What do you suggest? Small plants in the ground. I have a 200 year old oak and the canopy has gotten thinner due to hurricanes but my yard does have a lot of dappled shade. No holes in the leaves and their not sticky so I need help.
