Hi everyone! I believe that these two boxwoods are suffering from root rot, any ideas on how to possibly receive them? Thank you in advance!

    These look on their last days. You can only figure out the cause of the rot and try to avoid it on current and future plants.

    The plants in the image appear to be suffering from severe stress, possibly due to **overexposure to direct sunlight** (sun scorch) or **drought**. The yellowing and browning of the leaves, as well as the overall dry appearance, suggest that the plants have been either: 1. **Exposed to excessive sunlight**: Some plants, especially shade-loving varieties, can burn or develop yellow/brown leaves if left in direct sunlight for long periods. 2. **Underwatered**: If the soil is too dry for an extended period, the plants can become dehydrated, leading to wilting, browning, and eventual leaf drop. 3. **Root issues**: In some cases, the roots may not be absorbing water properly due to root rot or being pot-bound. Check the drainage in the pots to ensure they aren’t waterlogged. ### Steps to Help Recover: - **Check the Soil Moisture**: If the soil feels dry deep down, give the plants a thorough watering, making sure the water drains out properly. - **Move to a Shadier Location**: If these plants aren't designed for full sun, relocate them to an area with indirect or filtered sunlight. - **Prune Dead Areas**: Trim away the severely damaged leaves to encourage new growth. - **Consider Fertilization**: If the plants recover, a balanced fertilizer might help them regain vitality, but avoid fertilizing stressed plants.
