American Beech dormancy?

How long does it take for an American Beech to come out of dormancy? I have one, and the buds haven't even started swelling yet! It's been warm for a couple weeks now and I would think it's buds would have at least swelled. I scratched it's bark about a week ago and it seemed green. Please help! Is it dead, alive, or on the brink?

Thank you for any advice!

They open quite late. Mine are in the same state yours are (even if its warmer there), so don't necessarily expect anything for at least a month or more.
