Gardening for Dummies

Dear Garden Expert,
The trees in our yard are turning yellow and dropping all their leaves. I tried gluing the leaves back on, but the wind blew them off again. Are my trees dying? Help!

Dear Worried:
Those of us in the gardening industry are familiar with this leaf syndrome. It occurs during what is technically known as Autumn. Your yard is located in Zone 9½: Arctic, where Autumn will be followed by eight months of Winter. Then comes six hours of Spring, and finally, Summer, when the leaves will grow back (maybe). Enjoy your yard!
