redbuds leaves curling

11 years ago

I have three Forest Pansy redbuds that are 6 years old and about 8 feet tall. Although I have seen leaf curl on them before, it does seem to be more pronounced this time. They look perfectly healthy except for that. Is this something I should be concerned about?

    It's not unusual for redbuds & usually does little harm. Mine has some leaf-curling on the newest sprouts (it's been plenty wet here), but I see that every yr. As long as the majority of leaves are OK, don't worry. And yes, dryness/heat seems to exacerbate the curling.
