apple tree (if possible)
Hi Steve and Peter,
Thanks for asking, unfortunately my Golden Russet
and my Reliance have showed no signs of revival. In fact the Golden Russet has
just got drier and drier. We noticed a strange phenomenon on the Reliance
trunk; it seems to have little dots of orange. Being a complete novice, I
don't have any experiences with tree diseases. Could this be a form of
rust, maybe CAR? I didn't think peaches could get it, but hey, what do I
know! I guess whatever it is we should cut it down right away to be
sure.
I am reallly not having a good year fruit wise.
Between losing these 2 and my cherries being infested with ants, it's a bit of
a sucky year.

Hi
All,
re: Reliance Peach
I
thought my Reliance was a goner also. I cut it down this spring from a
height of about 8 feet to a height of about 18-22 inches which included one
branch
on two sides. Both these branches had signs of
viable buds but I was not too optimistic since all other buds were not
budding and looked definitely dead.
However, the tree
has rebounded wonderfully with much new growth.

Caren,
It's been 5 or 6 weeks since your wrote the post below. Did your apple
tree ever grow leaves?

In a previous post I lamented at the state of my golden russet apple and
reliance peach that I planted last year that did not leaf out. Well, I
think the peach has really had it, seems brittle and can't find any
green under the bark. Probably should just get the inevitable over and
done with and remove it and plant something else. RIP.
However the apple, while having no leaves is still supple and if you
scratch away the bark, it's green underneath. Does this mean that there
is still hope? If so what can I do to regenerate it?
Any suggestions welcome.
