Comments: - I only purchased my mandarine tree from Daleys a year ago. I wasnt very confident when it arrived as it was in a little box. It has grown incredibly fast, looks magnificent and we have even had a lovely mandarin which is sweet and delicious.

Question: What can i do to stop the leaves curling and dropping like the other citrus trees I have in the garden? I really dont want to use pesticides but I think we have a few problems: somethings eating the leaves; and something is causing the leaves to curl and drop off.

It's either the Mandarin or the Orange. One of them got lost during the drought and the tags fell off ages ago so we can't remember which one... It's covered in fruit, though, so not too long of a wait.

Comments: -

2nd year in pot. Re-potted this year as plant does not seem to be growing much - upwards a little but not spreading. However, roots are still shallow so does not appear to be pot-bound. Some flowers last year, no fruit. Leaf-miner seems to be a problem as all young leaves are affected and turn curly. I have been cutting them off - probably explains why the plant is not growing :-). This year I have decided to spray eco-oil at every single leaf bud that I see.
