Thanks all. Only this plant is affected, this one has lots of flower buds. The other didn't. I've Googled and the leaves are brown and dead, the trunk is also brown, fire blight problem. The Asian pear right next to it is not affected and so is the Anna apple, they didn't have any buds.
I don't have a lot of bin space to dispose the soil, this is why I ask this question. So to be safe, I will dump the soil.
