leaves can fall from trees for various reasons:
1. the tree is deciduous and it is part of its annual cycle.
2. the tree is stressed (drought) - trees will shed leaves to reduce the amount of water lost through transpiration in an effort to survive.
3. the tree is stressed (insect, fungal or bacterial infection) - many trees will simply shed dead or damaged leaves; or shed those that are infected by some form of pathogen in an effort to prevent the spread of the infection.
4. Over watering or root damage - as with point 2, root damage (or damage to the roots from over watering or waterlogged conditions) will result in the tree shedding leaves in an effort to restore a natural "root-shoot" ratio. Normally the basal leaves are shed first
These statements describe the characteristic behavior of deciduous trees, which shed their leaves seasonally. If a tree is identified as deciduous, it is expected that it will lose its leaves at a certain time of the year.
Most deciduous trees do this. Some will hang on to their dead leaves through the winter and drop them in the spring. Deciduous trees are trees like oak and maple, leaf-bearing trees as opposed to evergreens.
The palm tree is one type of tree that does not have traditional leaves. Instead, palm trees have large, fan-shaped or feather-like fronds that function similarly to leaves. These fronds help the palm tree to photosynthesize and grow.
If all the leaves are gone from your lemon tree, chances are it may not be alive. Lack of leaves could indicate disease, improper care, or environmental stress, all of which can lead to the tree's demise. It is advisable to inspect the tree further and seek guidance from a professional arborist.
yes it will live it probaly just winter or autumn there I am assuming that the tree lost its leaves during a season when it is not supposed to. Therefore, the answer to this question is that if the tree is actually mature, it may have lived out its useful life and is dying. Recovery is not probable.
If a tree loses all its leaves in the Summer the chances are it is dead. If it loses its leaves in Autumn, and is deciduous, then it will grow new ones in Spring.
Deciduous trees
Any deciduous tree will lose all it's leaves in the autumn.
Since it's now August, if this tree has not leafed out at all this season, then yes, unfortunately it is dead.

A Christmas tree is an evergreen that keeps its green needles all year round. A maple tree is deciduous. It loses its leaves in the autumn and is naked all winter, growing new leaves in the spring.
Syllogism
It loses all of its leaves
the soil temperature is too low and the tree goes dormant until spring
If the tree is not dead then new leaves will grow from the bud.
A Christmas tree is an evergreen that keeps its green needles all year round. A maple tree is deciduous. It loses its leaves in the autumn and is naked all winter, growing new leaves in the spring.
All deciduous trees lose their leaves in winter for various reasons not just frozen winters.
