Hi Louis,
Curious if you may have a problem with your soil in some areas. Where you have had failures, have you replanted with new plants and they lived? I had apple trees and always had an area where the trees seemed to die within a few years. after several tries took soil samples and found that there was a natural enzyme in the soils that was killing off the new trees. Removed yards of soil and replaced with new and trees took hold.
