Hello All.
Planted a young Conference pear tree last year. I've not done anything with
it other than feed and drink. Over the last couple of weeks I've noticed
most of the upper leaves have developed this red spotting on them..

The leaves are curling and the poor thing looks a bit sad. Can anyone please
help identify the problem and suggest anything to help?
many thanks,
Rich, Gloucester, UK.

It looks like pear leaf blister mite. You can google this to find out more,
and maybe a way of getting rid of it.
