Summer gales on Islay (and the wind reached over 70 mph in gusts last Monday) plus the salt they carry badly scorch young leaves at this time of year or, in the case of many sycamores and ash trees, strip them right off. The apple trees in my garden just make me want to weep! Here are three examples of wind damage from near Foreland.

Do they recover at all or is that it for this year for them?
ReplyDeleteThose that are still growing will make some recovery, but for others that's it for this year.
