Did you buy them from your arborist?I planted (8) 6' Nellie Stevens Holly which were harvested by spade 3 days prior
and this is happening to one of them? How to treat, is it recoverable, should
I have my arborist supply me another under warranty? thnks, Newbi
Over watered? Possibly herbicide contamination in soil? I would definitely call the arborist that supplied them. jmhoI planted (8) 6' Nellie Stevens Holly which were harvested by spade 3 days prior

Planted at the same time as the one on the right?That you all for your input: This is where it is now.
That's hard to answer without knowing what the cause of the distress is.The two hollies were planted at the same time on a slope (above prior pic). To hold water over the root ball when applied I created a burm on the low side of the slope. No mulch has been added yet. There was no grass and there were no herbicides used on that location. This picture and the comparison pic are week after planting.
I have an extra holly, still in burlap and wire, should I pull this funky holly and replace it or let it recover? Can it recover?
How can I help it recover?
What did your arborist have to say about it?Also, weird...before the holly turned brown, as in the first picture above, which shows wilting....it had a rotting vegetation smell if you stood near it.
Yes, I would do just that. Plant a new one.The two hollies were planted at the same time on a slope (above prior pic).
