in the spring my crabapples look great.after they flower the leaves turn brown then fall off.this contnues all spring summer and fall. this cycle has been going on for three years.i would guess the age of the crabs between six to ten years. i live in eastern iowa and our winters have been milder than normal for the last 5 to 6 years. if you have any suggestions for treatment of this problem i will be forever in your debt.they are great looking trees and we would hate to have to replace them. thanks for your time and knowledge
