Re: winter casualties
Are you sure these are casualties (if you mean them to be fatal casualties)?

Re: winter casualties
I might give the pumila another chance because it had already taken on the adult form and the dead leaves are dry.
The cupreata pair are quite 'mushy' so probably not. One thing about being tight for space, you have to be quite ruthless sometimes.

Re: winter casualties
