Prunus avium · Tree
Cherry leaf scorch and leaf spot: Collect and destroy fallen leaves to reduce fungal spores for the following year.
Brown rot: Remove all infected fruit and blossoms promptly to prevent spread, and net trees to reduce bird damage.
Cherry blackfly: Encourage natural predators like ladybirds, or squash infested shoots by hand in spring.
Silver leaf: Prune out and burn infected wood well below the visible symptoms to contain the fungus.
Slugs and snails: Use beer traps or iron phosphate pellets around the base of the tree to protect young growth.
