Sick or Passing Trees

Yardadori Juniper from Gerry Fields was repotted and cleaned deadwood—but before wiring in the winter it looked dormant or sick. Now March it appears more brown and brittle. I should look for scale or other issues. It may have been too aggressively worked after collecting.

A Chojubai that I purchased from the club green elephant last September did not wake up from dormancy yet and I’m concerned. I will look at the roots to see if it needs to get pus or some change.

One redwood that I repotted and reworked browned slowly and looks poorly or dead.

I should investigate what caused it.


Note: Caleb mentioned that a juniper and pines that he collected over a year ago recently died. He kept them bagged and misted this full time.
