Hello, I'm new to the forum and looking for some advice. I recently planted several Oregon boxwoods early this spring (Paxistima myrsinites), and they all have lots of yellow leaves now. They all have lots of sun exposure, and they were planted in well-drained soils, and I gave them a handful of waterings to help them get established, but now they all have yellow leaves, and I'm assuming they will be dead within the next few weeks.

I have managed to plant some in the past in my yard and those are doing great (almost 3 feet high now), so I'm really not sure what I'm doing wrong. I brought them at the local WNPS native plant sale.

Any ideas? Seems like they really don't like to be watered too much, so after their initial planting, I've held off on watering them.

Thanks!
