Strawberry leafs turning red?
Not sure of variety but year old strawberries leaves are turing red is this a sign of trouble or something else. Thank you for your help
Hi Living a dream
Strawberries often have some of their leaves turn reddish as they grow oler and just the occasional leaf is nothing to worry about.
However...if it is happening to a lot of the plants leaves then it would pay to check it is not more serious.
Check the site below for Red Stele ident.
Root and Crown problems can lead to leaf dessication as food is withheld from the cropping top.
Also look for white grubs around the root areas....and small semi-circular chunks taken out of leaf edges. Sure signs of Vine Weevil.
