Hi Barbara,

Could it be peach leaf curl ? My peaches went totally grey and fuzzy--like 
little puff balls of dryer lint- a couple of  years ago from peach leaf curl 
and not spraying while I was away.   Do your peach trees also have leaves 
that are malformed with pink-red, yellow or orangish raised areas?

Serenade works as long as I can spray.  I haven't tried lime sulfur yet- I 
keep forgetting to spray in the fall.

Dianne Stephany, Zone 5-- with a beautiful 75 degree day  today between 91 
Monday & Tuesday, 83 Wednesday, and 90 tomorrow.
