Inherited an array of 名媛直播 trees. Would appreciate help identifying species.

Hello, first off I would like to start off by saying I am completely new to 名媛直播. I have recently inherited an array of 名媛直播 trees, most of which appear to be dormant (thankfully giving me some time to wrap my head around the education I will need). However, there are a few evergreens—or at least I think they are evergreens—that are in pretty unsightly shape. The first two I believe to be Japanese White Pine (or 5-needle Pine) from what I can tell. I'm hoping dearly that I am wrong though, as from what I've read, their appearance indicates the worse has already happened.

I have done a scratch test on the straight-trunk tree, and it has a very pulpy bark, and once past that layer, it appears to be white. The tree with the rock appears to be the same species, just much, much older.

Thank you ahead of time for any responses, input, or knowledge you share.

Hello and welcome
Sorry to say but all trees you show are dead.

Thank you for your response, and your bitter-sweet welcome.

That is what I feared. Was I correct in identifying the species of tree?

I believe all of these 名媛直播 have been neglected, as the original caretaker passed. It appears the soils have become too compacted and are no longer draining water, and have been overwatered. I have a Golden Midget Serbian Spruce (Picea omorika) as well that is showing signs of decline. There is a yellow hue along the top layers of needles, and despite the name of the species, I don't believe this is a good sign. I separated the tree from the pot and found a lot of fine white fungal webs, or mycelium threads all around the soil. Though I have no experience with gardening, I believe this tree is suffering from root rot based on the color of the roots (brownish). The soil is also quite wet, even though no one has watered the trees in over a week. I will post pictures in another post momentarily.

The tree is indeed in poor condition but contrary to what you think the white deposit is not bad, but actually a good sign ( google mycrorrhiza).But it is in need of a repot.
Because you say you do not have any gardening experience i would suggest urgently seeking help from a local bonsai club/enthousiast.Where are ou from, maybe on of the more experinced forum members lives in your neighbourhood.Explaining to you what to do and when here online will be an impossible task, there are too many variables that come into play.
If all trees are in this poor/near death condition you need help from experienced people to rescue them.
Can you post pictures of all trees?

Thank you for your response. I'm located in Portland, OR.

I've deduced that that tree wasn't being watered sufficiently over the last couple weeks. The other day I ended up giving him a 3 min dunk and making sure the soil drained efficiently. I'm still looking for someone more knowledgable than myself, but I have been educating myself as much as possible.

I have a few questions though, if you wouldn't mind answering them, I would very much appreciate it:
Would you be able to give me an idea on how long most 名媛直播 trees take to respond to doing the "right thing," so to speak? i.e if this tree was in fact thirsty, now that he is properly watered how long does it typically take to start showing signs of being hydrated? Growing plant life is definitely a test of patience, but I don't want to be overly patient and risk his life, either. Also, I realize any brown needles will remain brown, but what about the yellow needles?

Another question: it has been rather wet here in the PNW, and I noticed two of my dormant trees have a layer of discolored.. something. It looks kind of like yeast that develops on tree bark, but it's hard to tell based on the size, and I want to make sure it isn't mold or some type of fungus. If it is fungul, can I use Orthodex to get rid of it? I've posted photos of those two tree below:

And lastly, would you be able to help me identify these two little guys? They both are producing green, red, and yellow leaves in the middle of winter. I'm sure they will need fertilizer very soon, but I need to figure out the species in order to figure out the appropriate steps to take. Pic:

It is winter where you are I suppose?
In winter, trees go dormant, and only respond marginally to what is happening around them. Trees that still have leaves drop them (partially) which may cause discoloring, such as you are seeing. This also means that the colour of needles may not improve till spring. And you will not see noticable differences till then in any of your trees

Do not fertilize now. Your trees are not actively growing, and will not take up substantial amounts untill they do.

I think the tree with some leaves turning red is an azalea. Also, it looks like there are weeds growing in some of the pots... I'd pick them out if you're sure they're not meant to be there.

You really really need to seek help ( in person, not online advice, however well meant), it would be a shame to loose more trees. Without wanting to sound negative, but realistically your horticultural knowledge is by far not good enough at the moment to do what needs to be done to some trees. F.i. you speak of the trees that are dormant now, well its winter, they are all dormant now.The azalea is not producing red and yellow leaves, they are discoloring and will fall off because its winter, that has nothing to do with fertiliser which trees do not use/need in their dormant period.

What you could do is post a picture of each and every tree, so we can say which ones are still alive. the dead ones you can throw away then, so a bit less trees you need to worry about, and if neede we can help you with the species.

The white deposit.. well, most of them just brush our trees with a soft toothbrush and some water, but take care not to damage the bark)
