One thing that may help is that evergreens like the soil to be somewhat acidic.
You
can check this with a simple PH testor, or you can simply add something like
Miracle Grow for Evergreens, which will sweeten up the soil.

Small correction to my last posting. Sweet soil usually conotates alkaline soil,

whereas sour soil is related to acidic. It's all semantics, but getting the soil
to
be more acidic than basic is the important thing.
