| I have 2 Kouzas, both 5 years old. This Spring they both woke up at the same time. But, about 3 weeks ago, one seemed to stop progressing. That is, it got lots of early buds and a few leave. But it seemed to freeze like this, and remains exactly the same 3 weeks later. It appears to be alive.
We're in the Mid-Atlantic region, and weather here has been unseasonably warm. No frost for over a month. There's no evidence of pests on the tree. FWIW, the other Kouza, progressed normally: bloomed, grew in leaves, etc. Any thoughts on what might be causing this? Many Thanks,

| Thanks for your quick response Ken. It sounds like you think this is frost related. Does this mean the tree is dead or just hurting? Thanks! Temple |

| If it still has green leaves, wait. If the leaves it made died, scratch the bark and see if it is green (alive) or brown (dead). John |

| Thanks John and Famartin. I'll try the scratch test and post a photo, if I can figure out how! |
