    You will want to plant them at the same level they are at now. The roots will grow down a few feet, but dogwoods are pretty non-invasive with their roots, which is why they are frequently used as foundation trees. There is little chance they will harm any walls or foundations near them.

    Root maggots are not a common pest of hazelnut trees, so there isn't much information. This article might be of some use: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/pests/root-eating-insects-identifying-vegetable-root-maggots-and-root-maggot-control.htm
    A bT product might work for you: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/pests/pesticides/using-bacillus-thuringiensis.htm
    If you have any horticultural resources available to you, through a nearby university, botanical garden, or government dept of agriculture, you might look there for information on this pest and its control.

    I would keep the soil consistently moist, but not damp/soggy - be careful not to over-water. You should never let the soil of a hazelnut dry out completely. The soil you use should be well-draining.

    Since both planting are showing signs of the same browning leaves it would indicate an insect or fungus issue.
    Examine the leaves and plants carefully to see if you can identify any pests or signs of fungal disease.
    You can treat with Neem OIl as is does work as both an insecticide and fungicide.

    Dig a hold that is 3 to 4 times wider then the pot and plant the tree as deep as it was in the pot.
    Make sure you do not damage the roots while removing from the pot and backfill with the soil from the hole. Do not add foreign soil.
    Add 3 inches of mulch to help with moisture retention.
    Keep the soil moist for the first year. 2nd year water when the soil is dry.
    Watering deeply once a week is preferable.

    A container planting is not recommended for this tree.
