Hi Gardening Folks,

I've got a problem with peach leaf curl on a peach tree that I planted last year, the leaves are erupting into sickly red and pale green colors and bubbling and warping into all kinds of alien shapes before they turn wither, and turn brown and dusty with a wasting moldy texture.

I've been told that there is still hope for my peach tree, and that I should wait until fall for the leaves to drop and then spray either a copper sulfate, or bordeaux mixture.. I was curious if anyone had advice on what in particular to spray with, and what fertilizers to use to give my tree a boost. Has anyone had any successful strategies in dealing with this illness, I wanna hear your war stories!

Thanks folks.
