Some of my yew hedge plants have become bronzed. I was about to replace them but they have shown signs of green in the last month. Should i persist with them? It is a clay soil and they are planted in topsoil but underneath is a hard pan where the builders machinery used 3 yrs ago.

This winter I planted two Liquidamber trees about 20' apart. It seems that one is fine the other however has only about 20% leaf cover. The only difference in location I can see is that the successful tree is more sheltered. Should I dig up the failing tree or is there a chance it will recover with time.
