Korean Hornbeam dead limbs

I planted two European Hornbeam's, bare rooted back last winter.
One leafed out profusely, but the other one had plenty of buds on, but refused to show any signs of life.
Due to bad weather this summer, i did not bother to dig it back up, and now i am glad i did not as its eventualy growing from the lower extremities of the trunk.
The main thing is, be patient, this tree is there for a few years and may very well back bud where you do not expect it to.


Best regards BD Paul
