JonaGold Apple Disease


Question
I have a Jonagold apple I planted a year ago.  It seems to be growing very well - new growth this year about 14" - 18".  But, the leaves on the tree are curling up around the spine of the leaf.  About 20 feet away, I have a Honeycrisp tree, also growing well, but it does not exhibit the same problem.

I checked for aphids and there are none.  Is this normal for the Jonagold?  Or is there maybe some soil component missing?

Thanks,

Rich

Answer
Rich;
If leaves are curling w/o any discoloration- may indicate an insect or environmental stress.  Carry a few of these leaves to your garden center or local nursery and get someone to look at them. You can also contact your local county Extension office - a great resource as well. These folks usually have someone trained to recognize these problems.
