[IBC] Worried about Trident
 

I can't speak to Michigan, but here in New Jersey, I lost one trident (a
stump with one year's growth on the branches), and had considerable die-back
on a forest. Both were in a cold frame, but the "stump" came from Florida,
which, I suspect, led to its demise during our tough winter.

Hope you do better.

Regards,

Bart

Ok now I am getting nervous. My Trident hasn't broken any buds yet. All my
other trees have. I did the same over wintering to all the trees as I have
done the last three years. The Trident has never had any problems before.
All the branches are flexible and I lifted it from its pot. The roots look
fine. I put it in a bigger pot and now I am waiting.
Any ideas as to whats happening?
I am in Michigan Zone 5

Are the buds still swelling? If you break a bud off, is it green
underneath? If you scrape the bark do you see green?

I have Amur Maple, Larch & Korean Hornbeam, Including one Larch & one
Maple forrest planting. There are trees in each planting which have
leaves up to 1 inch long, and some trees which have just started to
have buds swelling. All trees were over-wintered the same for the last
three years. It looks like all will leaf out some time.
