Could anyone help with this problem, my bay tree leafs are looking shrivelled and curling at the edge with white sticky stuff inside.

    Could be bay sucker. I have it on my bay tree but it doesn't seem to upset the plant as a whole.

    Pick off the curled tips and spray leaves with hose with very strong water spray. Stick your finger on the end if you haven't got an attachment! Can't remember what the bug is called but it's not fatal and you don't need chemicals

    In London. Keen but lazy.
