It will be a little feeble this year because of being barerooted. However, if you are in the lowlands it should be doing something by now, established specimens have been active for some weeks. Sometimes barerooted stock turns out to be dead later, hope you have a receipt, got it from a place that will at least issue a credit if it still hasn't come to life in a bit.

Mine has been in the ground 5 years. It's blooming but not yet leafing out.

Be patient. Unless your is dead, it'll do its thing.

Mine is not doing anything at all, (blooming or leafing) but my pear and prune bought at the same time are just barely leafing (only) and my apple (been around FOREVER!!!!) is leafing out quite a bit and is just barely starting to bloom. I will give it a bit longer and see what happens. I didn't invest very much $ into it, but I sure was looking forward to seeing it do something. :) BTW I live in Lake Forest Park.

Mine isn't leafing either, someara. My river birch takes forever to leaf. When I worried about it the first year, the nursery told me to just make a little scratch on a branch. If I have green wood, I have a live tree. Made me feel better. My poor little frost peach is getting all acratched up!

I was wondering if your frost peach ever leafed out. Mine never did, although the wood is green. I suppose I should just give up on it. I just thought, given the green wood, that it would come around.

Some people seem to like the Frost peach but mine declined yearly over 3-4 years and finally died from the effects of peach leaf curl. I do not spray. Trees either make it or get replaced. As for my current peaches, Harken has some PLC and gets over it, fruits some, was set back by bad bark damage from deer scratching velvet off antlers; and Indian Free has some die-back not related to PLC that seems to affect the lower branches so it keeps getting taller and barer down low, but doesn't have much PLC and fruits, very intensely flavored red fruit.

I got a frost peach last year that never came out of dormancy. I left it for the summer and cut it down this spring. I also had that happen with a Puget Gold tree. It just happens sometimes. Leave it for awhile and then replace it if it is dead.

This year I planted a Harglow apricot and finally ended my Peach/apricot failure rate! It leafed out late, but looks healthy. I was starting to think I was just cursed or something. All my other trees always did just fine. Who knows. Hopefully next year I will get a Peach tree finally that will live. I know I am kind of pushing it here, but I really want one. I just love Peaches. I have to say, I don't think I'll be planting Frost Peach though. They don't taste that great, and the last one I had before I moved here got peach leaf curl.

My frost peach has not done anything yet, but I will just leave it be for now and see what happens. The wood is green.....

Mine is going the same route as Hemnancy's, so I won't be getting another.

I planted a Frost Peach more than 10 years ago, and my experience has been that after it blooms, it takes awhile for the leaves to really "leaf out". It usually looks sort of naked for a month after it blooms, and the baby peaches begin to grow. It seems like one day in June I just notice it has bigger leaves.

Lots of folks around here are amazed that I can grow peaches. The tree is between mine and my neighbors house in Port Angeles. I think that helps with some disease, but I have found that I have to spray for peach blossom end rot, or all the peaches will fail. Some years I have lots, and some years I have less. Last year I got at least 2,000 peaches on the tree. I could't bear to thin it until July, so ended up with smaller peaches. I have had a few years when the peaches were HUGE and to die for. Havne't figured out the perfect pruning technique either, but will keep the tree as long as it is healthy..

Mine never bloomed. It's just stayed dormant. The only thing the nursery had to say was that maybe I put lime-sulpher on too late, and I should see the master gardener with a cutting. Maybe I did...the buds were just appearing as little gray things when I sprayed.
