Hello Again, Do not assume that because the first leaves
of spring were frozen off that the plant is dead. Plants have thousands
(millions) of leaf buds that are held in dormancy, they are only released from
dormancy when needed. The sun is one of the biggest factors. Say
you have a tree and a large limb is lost to wind. The missing branch will
allow sun to shine on branches of the tree that previously were shaded. The
sun will break down the hormones that hold invisible leaf buds dormant, and
they will begin to grow, replacing the lost canopy. Give your tree/s time to heal and react
to this recent freeze damage. Professor Henry Kock of the University
of Guelph, Ontario was adamant that Elms were taken down too quickly when
infected with Dutch Elm Disease. Many Elms are still to be found in rural Elm
Recovery Project http://www.uoguelph.ca/arboretum/SpProjects/Elm_Recover1.htm …”We
underestimated the number of large elms that would be reported, and we have
only visited ½ of the nearly 1,000 elms scattered through Never underestimate Mother Nature, she’s
a survivor. Later, Tom |
