No, not as far as I know. You transported them fine. IF they had been in the back of a pickup truck, and were not covered, just the steady wind of going 50-65 mph would dehydrate them and they might not have survived that. But as I suspected, the trees were likely "dead" when purchased. I assume they were planted at the same depth as they were growing in the pot and that they are sitting in a pool of water (no drainage), right?

The death of an evergreen is fairly straight-forward and predictable, simply by the way those evergreen branches begin to die back. The one with a good bit of green might make it though. Don't fertilize that one until you start to see new growth in the spring.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
