I have Sasanqua Apple Blossom plants in front of my home. Some of the
leaves appear to be deformed. They grow very thick almost like a
succulent plant and tend to curl. I don't see that it is detrimental
to the plant, but I'd like to know what it is and what to do about it.

Thanks.

Not knowing the plant's habit, it sounds to me like it might have been
exposed to an herbicide. Thickening, curling leaves have occurred on some
of my ornamentals when the spray drifted in their direction.

That's what it sounds like to me, too, and I would also suspect a fungus. I
have numerous sasanqua plants (not that variety) but have never seen that.
If it were me, I would take a few cuttings (include a good portion of the
stem, not just one or two leaves) and take them to a good nursery for
identification and possible help.
