So I had a nice little spot where I overwintered my trees in my first year, and everything pulled through just fine. I wintered my trees in the same spot this year, but my electric company took out the large tree that was giving them a little wind break and afternoon shade. Due to some health issues and an out of town vacation I've only just been able to really check them out this weekend, and the news doesn't look good. The worst off is my Hinoki Cypress. This tree did great all summer and I did some (poor) wiring back in fall. While the while tree is now brown, the foliage and small branches are still quite pliable. See pics.
Also, I'm seeing some damage on my smaller junipers and boxwoods in the same area.
I fear these trees are seeing way too much sun with the shade tree gone now. We have also been cycling from 50+F in the day tine down to around 30F at night. There's also been constant rain.
At this point, would it be wise to try to move my trees into a more sheltered location? Or is it too late to do much and just let them ride and see what happens?
