Japanese Maple

Hello there,

Here at Holliday Park we have a Purple leaf Japanese Maple that we've had for 8-10 years now, 12" up from the ground the trunk is 3.5" - 4" thick. It was a very healthy tree when we purchased it years ago. This year it seems to be dormant though. It shows sign s of life, as in it has budded this year but will not bloom. I can not detect any signs of insect damage There is evidence of frost damage on one side of the truck closer to the ground, could this be playing a role in the trees dormancy? Also last year the tree did absolutely fabulous as well as every year before.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as we have no idea what is wrong with out beautiful tree. Thank you in advance for any help.
