planted a few 2 years ago. They did well, they are from 3' to over 6' tall now. Well this yr every single one put on leaves at the bottom of the trunk, about 8-12" from the ground! No single leaves at top of the trees. I have some with 5 foot of bare trunk from the top to about a foot from the base. Any ideas?

Agreed, check the roots for foliage.

The question should be do you have worms with it? Those are great for fishing.

Hacking them back/down isn't the worst thing for them. Keep them low and bushy so the worms are easier to reach.

I heard peeing on the leaves kills the bottom ones and adds nitrogen for the rest of the tree.
