Ok so we had a late spring frost a week or so ago unexpectedly and for a very short time and after that my Yellow Delicious tree doesn’t look great. The young apples are half dark reddish, some look a little deformed and some of the leaves have a nasty curI, etc. I have attached a picture. Logic tells me this is from the frost, even though it was very brief (got down to 32) and temps hit 70 the following day. Are these apples a lost cause for this year and does this look like any disease anyone knows of or does it look like frost damage? Thank you!
Leaf curl - possibly aphids, nothing disastrous.
the color of young fruits is normal.
Orange spots on leaves - could be something fungal, but hard to tell now, minimal anyway.
Looks generally ok to me.
Yes all my apple trees end up with cedar rust. I am always battling that unfortunately. Ok i was concerned about the color because they were all green before the frost so I wasn’t sure. Thank you
I don’t get leaf curling often but it seems to be correlated with sun without a lot of moisture. In any case it is perfectly normal. There are a couple young leaves tighrtly curled there which look like aphid damage and you have a touch of CAR. The red on the apples is another thing that happens in a lot of sun. All normal stuff, don’t worry.
