HELP! Manzanitas
The bark near the root crown of 2 of my 18” manzanita saplings has peeled back. Can anyone diagnose and let me know if this is complete plant death, or if this is normal manzanita bark peeling? I’m afraid the cambium layer has peeled back. For pictures 3+4, clay soil was sitting around the peeling point for roughly 4 days before I replanted higher and cleaned the area.
