this is what is happening to the leaves of my dwarf lemon. most of the leaves are curling.
seen the discussion of the leaves curling of the lilly pilly. would the recommendation be the same for my lemon? if not, i would be grateful for any advice that would help. thank you in advance.
Hello @monty
There are a number of possible causes why your leaves are curling from mineral deficiencies, temperature effects and insect infestation. In order to rule out insect infestation, carefully open each leaf to see if there are any insects infesting the bottom of the leaves. If there are insects such as mealybug, mites or aphids, I suggest using Yates 750ml Ready To Use Pest Oil.
