Well, I must certainly attest that I don't know a lot about the growing of trees or how they know when to bud out, but I have to think that they are all variable in the same sense that various species of corn grow at different rates, as do tomatoes and all other veggies.

So I would think each specie of tree would have its own set of variables for how long it has leaves according to ground temp, air temp, amount and intensity of sunlight, and amount of available water. Have heard it said many times that trees talk. Well, then they must also listen, including listening to nature around them.

Sometimes they just sit there, but other times they're going all around eating new buds - most of which in winter you can't see without binoculars.
