I'm told this can't be fixed. We'll just have wait it out. See if the tree will survive. Is that the case?

Edit: Thanks all. I'll replace it and properly protect this time.

The root stock may sprout, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Unless you got this cultivar for a specific reason and the root stock is demonstrative of the opposite.
