The phenology of thirty-eight economic and potentially economic species of fruit tree crop plants, both foreign and indigenous, on the Bunso Station (Ghana) was studied. This involved weekly observations of flushing of new leaves, flowering, fruiting and leaf-fall. Flowering and fruiting occurred mostly between January and March. Sixteen species showed complete or partial leaf-fall, and in thirteen species, flushing of new leaves was associated, just before or with flowering. Tables giving species, their yearly flowering, fruiting and leaf-fall sequence and frequency are provided
