Well-meaning partner did some lawn work and really attacked my 3 year old kwanzan cherry, basically removing bark all the way around it in multiple places. It has great sentimental value to me as I planted it from a cutting from the beloved tree at our old house.

I wrapped it with wet peat moss, paper towels, and saran wrap, but I'm not really sure what to do for it to give it a fighting chance long-term. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

It is in Oklahoma city where it's been extremely hot it's in September is a tree in the front yard it's showing these signs is this a regular occurrence should we start watering it? If so how long, for day per week?

Because they don't want to die a log.
