The green orange grafted is bleaching and the starburst monti has turned brown. The purple, red and jedi mind trick are doing great. Except for the jedi mind trick they're all pretty much 5-6" away from each other and about same height on the rocks. The purple is in a bad spot but growing just fine, albeit slower than the rest.

I don't think it's nudis cause the whole thing is bleaching and not the typical straight line. Parameters all check out too.

The grafted I got the same time as the JMT. It was a little bleached from fragging but colored right back up. The starburst was being encroached by some gsp (still vibrant at that time) so I moved it a little further away. Guess it just didn't like that. This all started about 2 weeks ago only.
