My soursop is losing its leaves on one side of the tree. The leaves turn mottles yellow and brown and fall off after a week or so. The tre has fruited several times and is otherwise healthy. See the photoes. Is this normal or should I be treating the tree for pest and fungal disease...and what treatment would be advised. thankyou in advance for your time

Hi Karen, your soursop is showing the effects of a cold winter, it will drop a lot of the yellow leaves soon and come spring it will be covered in new growth.

Thanks Greg,
I thought it may have something to do with the cold but as with all native trees, it helps to ask when there is a problem.

Had my first fruit this week from a tree in 200mm pot planted 2 years ago . Very pleased with the growth , and surprised at how fast the fruit ripens . I checked the one and only large fruit on the tree on Sunday and it was hard . But on Tuesday it was down on the ground damaged from the 2m drop . But I ate it all up ,, many more fruits to come I hope .
