I just got my first apple tree this spring. It's a multi-graft low chill variety, with Anna, Einsheimer and Dorsett Golden branches. It was looking great and putting on new growth until about a week ago, when we started getting some rain. (I had been giving it the periodic, maybe every-two-weeks deep soaking until then, as recommended by our top-notch nursery for new trees.) Now, some of the leaves are turning yellow. No pattern to the yellowing I can see, some are yellow on each of the different branches.

Anyone have any idea what's up with this? And is it something I should be doing anything about?

Thanks, all!
