Might be a dumb/childish question, but there’s a tree outside my house and a few around the block that seemed to start sprouting leaves some days ago, but now those leaves are a purplish/brown. And when I drove up to NH today, it seemed like there were a lots of reds and browns on the branches of the trees by the side of the road in addition to some sprouting green leaves. A lot of greens seemed totally bare too, with no signs of buds.

Are there any plant enthusiasts here who can let me know what’s up? It’s entirely possible that this is normal for this time of year, and I’ve just never really stopped and wondered.

When we were driving home from SC on Monday, we noticed that the trees weren't fully leafed out yet. The Oak trees are a little late. I have 3 large maples in my yard and they are fine, as are the flowering trees. My lilacs are a late, usually they bloom around Mother's Day and they aren't ready yet.

It's the oak trees that you are seeing that aren't ready yet.
