It is likely that the scratch test further down the tree is not deep enough to reach the green area of the tree. If you see any green at all, then it is waiting for the climate to be just right for it to return any growth.

It is may 1st and I dont have any green leaves or green buds on the tree. The buds that I do have on the tree are dead. I would think by now I would have something in a way of a leaf or green bud if it is alive
