Q.When Will Leaves Oome Back On My Newly Planted Tabebulia
I planted a 35 gal. yellow Tabebulia in February in orlando Fla.(It is now March) It had leaves on it. The leaves fell off and the beautiful flowers bloomed. Now there are just pods but I don’t see the green leaves growing back. Should the tree start getting its leaves back soon and do I need to cut the pods off? They have not opened yet.

No, don't do any cutting at this time. That will stress it out. You are at the very lowest end of where it can survive, and adding any stress now will not be good.
Give it a little time, as your area will be the last to see growth from the tree, being at the outer edge of where it can survive.
