    Hi denise, it's Peach leaf curl:

    I have a resistant variety called Avalon Pride but it still gets it, however to a much more limited extent (maybe 10% of the leaves in a bad year.)  I recommend this variety to anyone who wants to grow peaches in the UK.

     

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
