I was wondering if anyone could help me save a tree.

I planted a pine in my backyard this spring, and while I don't know the exact name it's the Christmas tree variety. The nursery said that it might not work in my area due to elevation (it's suppose to be several hundred feet higher). While the tree was doing fine in the cooler months, it looks like it has been sun burnt now that summer is in full blast.

Does anyone know how to handle sun burns or does anyone have any advice on how to salvage the tree? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you mist it frequently?
Can you try covering it lightly with a sheet in the daytime?
That's all I can think of.

Welcome. Can you post a picture of it. It may be a good idea to positively ID the plant first.
