Prunus cistena C10 flowers died...

Hi my Prunus was covered in small pink flowers last week. It now has lost them all except for a couple on the end of one branch.

I also noticed the leaves are all curling. Is this normal am I doing something wrong or does it have some disease, any help would be apricated

    The flowers don’t really last that long ... we just have to appreciate them while we can. 

    The curling leaves might be a reaction reaction to the drying effects of wind or strong sunlight ... to be on the safe side I’d give your tree a couple of buckets of water today and twice a week through the summer (unless there’s a deluge) ... because of last year’s drought and a dryish winter spring the soil below the surface is quite dry in many places. 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
