Reliance Peach Tree

Question

It seems after about five years of having a Reliance peach tree, it dies. I live in Minnesota, so the winters get pretty cold. I now have a 2-year-old tree and it looks like all the leaves on the branches are not going to come out, only about a fourth to be exact. Any ideas of what I am doing wrong? Does it need more fertilizer?
