Wilty leaves on young plum tree

ltilton
10 years ago

2nd leaf tree.

Just after petal fall, the leaves on this tree started to look sort of floppy, as if they were going to wilt. They haven't wilted, not yet, and show no other signs of distress, but I have a bad feeling about it. In a photo, the leaves look normal.
