Possibly. Does your tree get any afternoon shade?

Thanks, Patty. It gets some afternoon shade, but it's in the late afternoon. It's against a SE wall, so it gets a smidgen of shade in the early afternoon. It isn't till the late afternoon that it gets a good amount of shade.

doesnt look too bad to me, but if you're worried, you could get some thin pvc pipes and rig up a temporary cover with an old white sheet or white t shirt.
