Hi, I haven't looked around the threads here much so I'm sorry if this has been addressed already. We had actual temps as low as -40F not including wind chill this winter, and a day or two later, 45F above zero! Looks like a lot of my apple trees have some winter kill with lots of buds not leafing out. Some trees appear to have died off altogether with no leaves popping from the buds yet. These are grafted on B118 and the B118 all appear to be healthy. Galarina seem to be hard hit with lots of buds not leafing out, and little to not blossoms, looks like most/all of the fruit buds were killed off.
Question, will this permanently stunt the trees or make the vulnerable to a complete die off in the next year or two with those trees that appear to be really hit hard? Or will they bounce back with little to no long term effect?
thanks
