Bay Tree Disease/Bug problem

Bay Tree Disease/Bug problem

Question from Shoot User

Hello

Almost all leaves of my large Bay Tree are strangely curled (see attached picture). When I open the curls, there is liquid and a white powder inside. Could it be eggs of an insect? Any advice how to fight this?

Hans

    Hi Hans - welcome to Shoot. If you login and add the plant Laurus nobilis to your plants list you should get care advice for pests & diseases too added to your 'Pest & disease' care calendar. Did you look at the 'how to care' tab for this plant? A number of pests and diseases are listed there. One sounds like it might be your issue Bay sucker . Take a look and come back with any questions you have:) All the best, Nicola

    p.s. hope you are enjoying Shoot!
