Corkscrew Willow Leaves Are Curling And Rolling This Year

Question From: Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, United States
Q: My corkscrew willow leaves curling and rolling up this year. New growth doing same so doubt that it is a chemical spray from my neighbor. No weed and feed applied. Only heavy fertilizer. However, first year of the problem Tree is probably 10-years old. No bugs/aphids in leaves. Help. I can send an email picture if you provide email Thanks so much Tom

A: Heavy fertilizer may be the issue especially it is chemical based. Chemical fertilizers are basically salts and can burn. Your willow probably doesn't need fertilizing so lay off it. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
