It may be as Debbie says, cold weather. But what have you fed your apple tree with?, has it dried out?. A boost would be to give it a liquid feed of Tomarite and about an ounce of Sulphate of potash.

Hi Polyann, I also have a similar problem with my pear. The tree started budding really early and then we had that really cold spell, and some of the leaves started to turn brown and crispy. I am hoping they were just burned by the icy winds, as it is now putting on green leaves again. Not sure if this is of any use to you at all.....
