Hi New,
Just make sure that the trees that you plant are a good distance from your dying Oak Tree. The Juglone secreted by the oak will have a negative efftect on the growth of trees like Lemon and what not. Might be a good idea to plant some buffer foliage around the oak such that the allelopathic chemicals do not stunt the growth of your new trees.
