Hi,
I have a three year old Falstaff apple tree that is growing
quite vigourously but the leaves of the new shoots are changing
colour to a light reddish-brown; not dying or falling off, just
changing colour.
According to Dr. Hessayon's book "The Fruit Expert", it might
be short of a mineral or two. Has anybody any ideas on or
experience of this please? He suggests the application of a
foliar spray such as 'Fillip' but I can't say that I've seen any
of this around. Is there perhaps another product name I should be
looking for?
Thanks - Joe
How close are you to the coast? The recent high winds have been carrying
salt inland and scorching leaves.
