Pear leaf curling

Hi everyone,

I have noticed on my espelier pear tree that some of the leaves are curled up. Can anyone tell me the problem and how I might rectify it.

Thanks

 

Hi Rydall. It could be leaf curl virus, or caterpillar or aphids. Uncurl one of the leaves and see if there are any pests in there if not then it is likely to be leaf curl virus which is untreatable though not ( I think ) fatal. David.

 

Thanks David. I will have a look tomorrrow.
