The rootstock tried to grow back but the lime tree was dead.

Thanks, I'll chop em off this afternoon. The last three pictures I posted are of the Satsuma, the third to last one (with my hand) shows all the leaf buds growing on one of the branches (several of the branches show this, I just took the one picture), so is there still hope?
