    Peach Tree Froth
    :confused: I have a peach tree three years in yard. This year flowered very little and never got buds.
    Red nodules on leaves, leaves are curling, mostly end third and some turning brown with
    Warty lime green growth across width of leaf. What can I do for my tree?

    This could be related to scales.

    The froth you mention could be caused by spittlebugs

    Check this site Plant Symptoms I dislike sending you to a site that's selling something, but the site's symptoms and causes is laid out pretty well.

    You may want to try spraying with rubbing alcohol. Mix 1 part alcohol with 8 to 10 parts of water and add a squirt of liquid soap.
    Be sure to spray all leaf and stem surfaces thoroughly. It is also best if you repeat this treatment again in 5 to 7 days to catch any that you missed the first time.
    After that, you should check your plant weekly to see if they return, and if that doesn't get them you'll have to turn to pesticides.
    Check at a local dedicated Garden shop or Nursery.
