I have one of these trees that is going into it's 3rd year here -- it is just now beginning to get some leaves on it, and I'm wondering if it is typically very late to break dormancy after the winter or if my tree is on it's last legs (or maybe it's last roots?) ?? I believe these normally bloom before the leaves come out, right? And there have been no blooms, so maybe that's why the leaves are so late to emerge? I love these trees, but right now I'm wondering if I should cut my losses and dig it out and replace it with something else, or continue to hope it will actually work for me. Thanks for any insight!
