    You should get it in any garden centre or DIY chain. Digging in peat moss, compost, leaf mould etc.will also help. If the tree is only newly planted it's roots will not have had time to adjust to soil conditions. What is your soil Ph and how did you determine it? Most plants are quite happy at about Ph7, it's only the likes of rhododendrons, azaleas, pieris etc. that would prefer a lower Ph.
