Hi! we planted 4 blue arrow junipers last spring in 2 pairs. By the autumn 2 were turning yellow and look like they are dying but it was one from each pair. One pair is located north and get full day sun and 2 are southeast and get afternoon sun. Is there anything I can do to save them? Thank you

Good morning,
Thank you for your question regarding your juniper trees. A common issue juniper's experience is the lack of winter watering. Because of our dry winter climate junipers do need to receive water during the winter months. I'm also including a Fact Sheet about planting evergreens/junipers as you indicated the problem started after planting last spring. The Fact sheet provides a great deal of information for your review and provides a reference to other Facts Sheets that may be helpful.
