Are my peach trees officially dead?

We have had massive amounts of rain here in Texas (19 days of rain) and last week all of the leaves fell off of one of my peach trees, and this week the other tree is turning yellow. Are they truly dead or have then been tricked into thinking it is fall? It has been unseasonably cool here this year. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

You should check them for borers. If they have a blob of hardened dark sap coming out from main limbs or trunk they have been invaded by peach tree borers and are on their way to dead. If you are lucky and fast you could poke an opened coat hanger wire into that sap and spear the worm there. If the worm has moved beyond the initial area it is too late.





Just having a lot of rain would not turn their leaves yellow or drop them.
Reply:I think so. I had a peach tree in my yard that flowered one spring, appeared very healthy grew leaves and had set fruit. Within one week all the leaves began turning yellow and fell off. The tree was dead. I think the problem was bores.
Reply:Unless you have an urgent need to make use of the ground leave them til next year if they don%26#039;t produce leaves then you can cremate them. Did you check the leaves for fungal disease or bugs?
