Is my Frasier Fir dead?

I bought a potted Frasier Fir that had never been indoors. I replanted it in March and all seemed well. In May it started turning into a bright, browny orange color. Now in June it has new dark green shoots at the base. What would be my next move?

You description also matches up with winter burn, but the the time of year does not match with this.
