First Aid for Fruit Trees...

I will hopefully add pictures in the next few days... If stone fruit trees lose their leaves in winter, are ours just losing their leaves or has some bug got in there and they're going to kark it? I'm off to see what Google has to say. Might sound like an odd question, esp since you can buy them with no leaves on... but ours the ends of the leaves are dying off then the leaf is dropping off... some more so than others - so wasn't sure if this was a disease or if that's how the leaves go when they get ready to fall off... So I'm off to Google but if you have any experiences to share in that dept, would be keen to hear :) Also need to find out what this time of year means in terms of care for the trees, what they need and what we shouldn't do for them.

ETA:
Some answers and good information here & here.

oh and growth in another area - I have hair regrowth on my head LOL - little short bits everywhere - very funny in one way but very welcome :)

And if anyone has tried Fuzzi Bunz one-size nappies... please let me know what you think/thought. That's the US site, they're available in AUs here. They're not the one-size with snap down front like others, these have 'maternity' elastic in the legs and waist instead... which I think it's a neat idea...
I've also been browsing around Phil and Moni's site... I see the clothes on Moni at our school and have decided that one day, I might just have to own a pair of pants/apron pants/skirt... :)

I bought a pair of Moni's wide-leg pants a few months ago and they are fab. I do covet some of the fancier pieces, but I could justify the black pants because they go from casual to dressed-up and can be worn everywhere.

Looks like you found your answer, but our stone-fruit trees do that (might not answer your q though cos I don't take very good care of themm - but they do perk up just fine in spring).

Ha - small world and all that huh Georgie! :) Do you have any pics of the black pants on? I am waiting just a little longer before I make the purchase, when I'm closer to my normal clothes size.

Thanks re the trees - I might put up pics of the leaves - kinda curious whether they're just doing their thing or if they're dying...

Thanks Georgie :)
