    This one colorado blue spruce seedling is turning yellow at the tip, and a little bit on the bottom, the pics are kind of blurry, but if anybody knows why this is happening please let me know, i have 20 of them that i planted together in a little fence about a month ago, they were sent to me bare root, and already got over there transplant shock, and as you can see started to bud, i tried to contact the company but now i cant seem to get a hold of them, so please let me know, i really would like all of them to live.
    Thanks.

    Sorry, the pics are too poor to tell what the problem might be.

    Should I throw these trees away?

    The first two pictures are of tree A, the last two pictures are of tree B, they are both blue spruce seedlings, tree A is very bare on the top, and has only a little bit of new growth at the very tip, it is nothing but a stick, but the next picture shows that the same tree still has some green healthy needles on the bottom, while tree B, has needles that are turning yellow, even if you cant see the pictures to well, please let me know what you think yellow needles could mean, tree A is such a stick, because i pulled off all of the brown and yellow needles, for fear that whatever disease it had would spread to the rest of the tree, will they pull through or should i just chuck them? also the new growth is drooping, i just transplanted them for good, is this just transplant shock? i just want to be really sure that they are not alive when i throw them away, this is my last post about my blue spruce trees.
    Thanks.
