Hi Folks,
I'm a new subscriber to this place, and after looking over the web I figured this would be as good a place as any to get the information I'm going to be needing through out the year, (if not the very best) so I figured I would pay and support the website.
My first question involves a peach tree that my husband bought and brought home about a month ago. There is some kind of a disease on many of the leaves. Its BRIGHT deep red bubbles on perfectly green leaves that curls up the leaves. Not your typical leaf curl. My husband says he looked it up (don't know where) and was told that it is cedar disease but we don't have any cedars in the yard or anywhere near.

I took a picture of some of the leaves that I removed from the tree with this problem and I'll post it as soon as I can figure out how. Oh, my...that was easy...the picture is posted. Anyways...in this picture you can't see just how RED this disease is...it is really a very deep red.

My screen name doesn't have anything to do with gardening....I'm a quilter too.

And my biggest gardening problem is gophers...but thats for another forum. I should have called myself ElmerFudd.

Anyways...I look forward to chatting with ya all.
