PH level of soil

Question: I have 3 maple trees. 2 of them have leaves at top of tree?  I think they probably need iron?  What is the best treatment and what fertile should I use?
Also have evergreen not sure what type? Enomous?
Are they able to be saved?

response: Hi Patrick, I need more information from you. Are you saying you have yellow yeaves at the top of the trees? You may have a magnesium deficiency or iron deficiency. Considering doing a soil test. There are fertilizers for iron and magnesium but the pH may have to be corrected too.   Regarding your evergreen plant, I would need a plant name or photo to help diagnose your issue.
