Hi,

That January cold snap here in Ontario has had a real negative affect on
our peach. It has leafed out very oddly, with large spans between
leaves. I assume that about 80% of the leaf buds died, but here and there
on every branch a leaf or two has popped out.

How long do you wait to prune off winter kill, that is only now coming
apparent?

Thanks,
Tom
