Plum tree leaves have curled
Hi All,
I was out in the garden yesterday, and noticed that some of the leaves on the victoria plum have curled up. Not all of them, mostly the newer leaves have curled, but some of the larger ones have - perhaps about 1/3 in all. I uncurled a few and spotted what looked like green aphids. Any suggestions for what is going on and organic solutions would be gratefully received. I'm thinking about giving the tree a water or water and washing up liquid or water and nettle tea spray. TIA, Sarah |

Application of thumb wouldn't go amiss either. -- Kay Easton Edward's earthworm page: http://www.scarboro.demon.co.uk/edward/index.htm |
