Hi all, please see the below pics of my pear tree, the leaves have started to curl and it’s looking really sick. Any ideas what I can do to help it out? Any ideas will be much appreciated. Thanks Susan

    Nice Plum tree :) which probably has aphids feeding inside those curled leaves - take a look and if they are present, you can try spraying them with cold water mixed with 2-3 drops of washing-up liquid which will kill most of them.
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Hahaha - plumb tree, shows what I know! I bought two bare root trees last year must have mixed them up! Thanks Bob that’s great, I’ve given it a shot and fingers crossed it works! Thanks for you help, Susan
