Q.Are My Conifers Savable

Zone DH7 6FJ | Anonymous added on March 27, 2021 | Answered

Hello I want to know if my trees can be saved, i moved house in september last year and pulled my conifer trees up and replanted them but they seem to have gone really brown on the outside they are still greenish on the inside, some of it was dark brown at the bottom and I have cut all this off any advice on this please.
