What is wrong with my Crab Apple tree?

HumbleBeeHumbleBee Posts: 105
Hi All
I planted a 6ft tall Crab Apple in April - looked really healthy, beautiful blossom and healthy leaves. Over the last 2 weeks or so it has started dropping its leaves (the leaves now are mainly at the tips of the branches and the top) The leaves that are still there are looking ill, some with brown edges or discolouring. Does anyone recognise what the cause of this might be? Could it just be a lack of water (it's been very hot and sunny here (at last) after an excessively wet couple of months) or is it diseased? Is it dying? Can it be saved? :( Any suggestions much appreciated

    Here's another view - this is the very top of the tree where the edges of the leaves are browning:
