Oh, the second pic? I thought you had been asking about the first. I'm sorry, I misunderstood. Nothing wrong with the 2nd pic as far as I know, but I'm seeing that in some of my other trees, which are using the same soil/rock dust/green sand combo, the leaves are reddening along the edges and then shrinking, causing the leaves to pucker. The leaves seem to be healthy otherwise. The plants have good drainage, get regular water - the soil feels good, and the flowers bloom well. A man from the local garden centre thought at first it was botrytis, but there's no blackening and further deterioration. So he thought it was frost damage on the root since my plants developed sooner due to being in a microclimate. However, some are presenting with this issue as time goes on. It's a curious issue for now and not alarming, and I hope it stays that way. Smiling
