Nectarine leaf curl (forum)

3 responses

Tiggerbow starts with ...
Hi All,
I recently brought a Trixzies miniature nectarine tree. It was in full flower when I got it.
It now has quite a few leaves on it and they seem to have leaf curl.
I know that you are supposed to spray for this before bud burst - which i clearly cannot do now.
I was wondering if there was some other treatment I could use now that it has leaves.
Also I have a peach tree nearby - will the leaf curl move to this tree also?.
Thanks in anticipation...

Bravo works well, mancozeb works a tiny bit.

It can't jump trees after budburst.

Thanks Jimmy.
I just googled Bravo and I assume it is not organic.
Can I cut the affected leaves off - or will it also be present on new leaves that grow?.
Apologies for my ignorance - I actually haven't come across it before.
Any ideas what will happen if I just left it?.
Thanks
