Hello, I'm in need of some advise- Last year I planted 3 English Walnut seedlings. They were about a foot tall when I planted them and all 3 grew to about 4 feet tall and looked great. I live in Louisiana and we had a really bad cold snap during the winter. Not normal at all for around here. Well, by the end of the winter all 3 trees looked like 3 poles sticking out of the ground. I lost all limbs. I thought they were dead; however around April they started to sprout new growth at the bottom only. Well now 2 months later all 3 trees are taller then last year, however just the sprouts from the bottom growing. It doesn't appear that the main trunk of the tree is growing. My question is, will the trunk grow to make a tree or will it just bush out from the bottom and not become a tree?
