Dry curling leaves on bay tree which has done well for last two years
now seems to be dying off. Not like ones I've seen in garden centres one
main trunk mine has five stems from root 4 curled drying leaves, the 5th
still fresh and green but may go say way. Can't see any indication of
bug attack. In 18" pot and reasoably sheltered positon....could it be
pot bound or would it be lack of neutrients? *At a guesse it is about
4yrs old.
Thanks in anticipation.

Mine went the same way. Check the bark on the effected branches. If
it is flaking off, it's the same as mine went. I assume it is frost
damage froml last Winter.
