Seedling
Pretty sure my entry is beyond saving. I'm not surprised, when purchased it was the only one of 30+ that wasn't brown or orange and the home depot guys were chucking them in the dumpster. I wired down the branches to bring in some light, but other than that I haven't stressed it. Just watering and misting on warm days. Weather may have been a factor, freezing then 85, then freezing, then 85.
Now it is getting crispy, very dull green with some yellow tips. Needles fall off to the touch, though branches still have a little flex.
Definitely a bummer, but I'm excited to get new trees from local sources that are better adapted for Oklahoma. The low prices of the new spring stock at the big box stores are tempting right now on my budget, but I am worried that I will have won't better luck with them.
I am excited to see what has become of the other entries!
