Like us, stress does a number on the trees. It's been a hot and fairly dry summer around here, so the trees are shutting down and leaves are dropping more quickly. Trees like birch and sycamore drop early anyway. Our maples need time to turn that fiery red, and the leaves may just darken and fall off if the tree shuts down early to conserve water. Let's hope that's all it is, because with a good rain they'll come back strong in the spring.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14744155949827908231noreply@blogger.com
