dying cedar trees

(Newport,Maine)

Hi i live in Maine and have some cedar trees that were planted 3 years ago,had no watering schedule except natural rain,they were planted on an old truck entrance;so on gravel,they get full sun and I don't know/think the ground was prepared first seeing as how they were hand dug,or if compost was added at time of planting.Is there anything I can/could do or is it a waste of time?

Dying Cedar Trees
by: Kimberly

Hi from Newport, Maine again. Thanks for posting again on your trees. The best thing to do if possible is to check out with a local nursery. Bring in a couple of branches and explain the situation.

If you can save them, you may have to get some fertilizer in the ground and to nurse them back to health by incorporating a watering schedule.

Let us know how you make out and thanks again for asking the question and for following up.
