maple trees, leavesnot falling

Question

we have a long established maple tree in our front yard that has bloomed every year.This fall and up to now Jan. 2018 did not lose its leaves. Is this a problem for the tree for this spring. This fall and winter has been colder then normal.?*

Answer 1

The leaves hanging on to your maple is likely related to an early cold spell, before the leaf abscission process was completed.

There is no harm to come of it, only an aesthetic issue.
