QuestionIf all of the leaves don't fall off naturally, do I need to cut them off in the winter?Community AnswerIt won't hurt to leave them on the tree. However, you should consider removing them if they are still there after the new year. Beeches are notorious for this, and often the new shoots push the old leaves off.

QuestionWhy does a Chinese elm grow fresh leaves and then immediately shed them?Community AnswerThis shouldn't happen, and if it does, it indicates that your tree is not getting enough water (or too much) or may be receiving too much heat. Also, check your potting soil to ensure that there is not too much peat. Finally, make sure your tree is firmly seated in its pot, using wire for stabilization if necessary.
