No, it is not dying:)

Lovely color! Can it still be called an evergreen?

Jennifer!


I had no idea that any tree in the arborvitae family did this. We had some taller ones forget which kind) in front of our house and they stayed green, so I assumed they all were like that. Learn something new every day!

That's kinda nice change of color for the fall. Knowing me, I would forget about the color change and pull it out thinking it was dead!
