It looks as if my plant has leaf curl. Any ideas whether this is possible and what to do?

    Hi @lizabray - have you got a photo? It's difficult to advise without seeing the problem.
    Click on the icon that looks like hills and follow the info to upload. Try and keep the photos at around 1MB or so and they'll load more easily   :)
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    The leaves seem healthy enough in themselves, have you had a look underneath them to see if there are any bugs lurking ?
    It's generally considered a pest free species (as far as anything can be). Is it in a pot, and if so what size pot, what type of compost and how long has it been in the pot please ?

    As @AnniD says - it looks fine, but where it's growing, and how, can be factors. They're best in the ground, and in shade, with decent moisture.  :)

    Thank you. I think it was parched as it looks better than 2 days ago.

    Good news  :)
     l have grown them in pots before, but they are happier in the ground. 
    I appreciate it's not always possible though.
