    When we moved to our new house. My dad transplanted 2 Pineapple Guava bushes.
    They look like there dieing. One clue I just learned about is that my dad didn't dig them up he pulled them out of the ground with the truck. By doing that I'm thinking he didn't get enough
    of the rootball could that be it?

    Here are some pics of them.

    Outlook not too good. Shading, mulching and liberal post-transplanting watering were probably required to get these through the trauma in reasonable condition - and even that might not have been enough.
