leaf curl
Plant fungal infection
Leaf curl is a plant disease, usually fungal, that causes leaves to pucker, distort, and curl inward.
Peach trees are particularly susceptible: The orchard lost half its crop to leaf curl this year.
The term also describes the symptom itself, whether caused by disease, pests, or environmental stress.
