Just getting ready to start putting my trees back outside and i have something going on i lost a trachy, and a washy so far and the one in the picture has some bugs on it and the surface is sicky in the crown area. Also new growth is white not sure if thats from illness or maybe not enough light. Please help i dont want to lose this washy to i have worked so hard to keep these things healthy for quite a few years now. 

Thanks

Oh yeah the trachy had some leaves closed so i thought i just went a little long between waterings. 2 days later it all shriveled up and spear pulled easily i cut the trunk to see how bad it was and it was rotted almost all the way to bottom of trunk.

The washy lost all its leaves except one then that started to shrivel up by the crown and fell over before the frond died. It was still green as it hung against the trunk. The spear didnt pull but was very soft and fell over also the spear was very pale green at top and white by the crown

The pale color of the new growth is nothing to be alarmed from and is due from a lack of light.

Hit it with some insecticide/fungicide just for the heck of it.
