New Apple Trees--Discoloration of Leaves

I have two apple trees which I planted approx. 2 weeks ago. I noticed today that the outside of some of the leaves are turning a lighter green. Is this a problem, or could it be related to some cooler temps? Would appreciate some advice.

What kind of apple trees are they? Can you post a photo?

if it is now growth that is yellow with green veins, it could be chlorosis.
We had that happen with some newly planted apple trees. It is iron deficiency brought on by over watering.
If that is it, just cut the watering way down.
