    You probably have a bacterial (may be fungal) blight, which is a problem. Look on google and see if you can identify it and from that buy a fungicide. The problem is you can't get rid of it and you will have to spray many times per year to keep the leaves on. For that reason, the ag people do not recommend those kind of products. And, they don't want the bacteria to mutate and become resistant. But, try it and see if you can keep the leaves on this year. Once they fall, the blight will put the trees into decline until they die. May take 2 or 3 years. We had it on peach trees. Warm weather peach trees are susceptible to leave blight. It got on a few trees of those varieties and spread to all of our peach trees. We fought it with fungicide for a year, then got smart and cut down the trees we thought were susceptible. It stopped the blight and the colder weather peach trees did not have the blight.
