About 8 weeks ago i planted about 180 potted laurel to replace my dead escallonia hedge. I have watered them , i think sufficiently. Now about 1 in 6/7 are turning yellow and the leaves are falling off. Some I can see are sprouting new shoots but the yellowish ones are not. do you think they are dying or dead?? if so , can you advise anything to give them the "kiss of life". My escallonia hedge thrived where they were planted prior to frost damage.

I am about to plant some laurel hedging. would it be ok to set at 2ft apart even though the potted laurel is only 18inch in height or should i go every 18inchs apart? what would be the difference in the hedge getting established?
