Expert Response
The most common reason for a cherry tree to turn yellow is a fungal infection. Leaf spot is a fungal disease that causes spots on the leaves that turn yellow. By July this can lead to heavy leaf drop. Over or underwatering can also cause or exacerbate this. Trees need an inch of water per week and more if the soil dries to a depth of two inches.
