Peach Tree Leaf Curl

My dwarf peach tree is in its second year with us. About 1.5 foot and in a pot. Did really well last year but all the leaves have appeared with leaf curl. Is it too late to treat? What should I do?

    I haven’t found anything that cures peach leaf curl. I pick any I get on mine off very quickly. If you leave them on it spreads like wild fire. Put your pot under cover, it’s the rain that brings the virus to the young leaves. We used to have Bordeaux mixture that held it back but this has been discontinued now. When the leaves get older and hard the virus doesn’t have such an effect. Valerie

    All the leaves are curled. Do I get rid of them all?
