About 4 years ago I planted a plum tree in the garden it is now about 10'
and seems to be growing really well.

but every year it seems to suffer with what I have been told is leaf curl.

This mainly affects the new leaves attached to all the new growth. it is
really bad and seems to send the affected leafs brown and kills them if
left.

if I un-role the leaf their seems to me some small green aphid bugs inside
the curled up leaf (a little bit like green fly) but they are different. Are
the bugs what are causing the leaf curl? if so can it be cured and if so how
should I ensue it does not come back next year.

last year I removed all the leaves and cut it right back and this year it is
as bad as ever.

Thanks in advance or help, I am not a gardener or green fingered so please
keep it simple

Regards
Richard
