Looking for a diagnosis on what could be going on in the pictures below. I planted this line of spartan junipers in April (in NJ). The soil has a clay consistency, so the issue I had with skip laurels in this area in the past is that I drowned them when watering - the soil did not drain.
Anyway, I haven't watered these plants often and all but this ones has taken off. I put the mesh wire around as I thought that my dog might have found a favorite spot to go, but I go out with her and don't see her over there.
Maybe 1 out of 26 isn't bad, and I'll just have to replant with a new one in the fall? If anyone has any suggestions on how to bring it back or if it is feasible, please let me know.
Thanks!
