I have an established groundcover (15+ years) with Juniper Blue Pacific. In the last 2-3 years I have had slowly progressive loss of some of the plants (see photos depicting bare areas, as well as incipient loss). I have replaced some specimens, some of which have died and others are still alive. I haven’t noticed any insect damage. The dead areas seem randomly located amongst the landscape. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks. Dan Marder

Last winter, I lost one of my two blueberry bushes (supposedly hardy to zone 6). This year, I have two again, one the same variety that was lost(unsure of name), the other is a Chippewa. Should I move them inside? Concern is they won't have a period of dormancy if I do. Could it have been something other than the long period of snow/ice last winter that killed the plant? Thank you.

How do I prune this Inkberry? Want it to fill in. Should I cut off the epical stem?
