I live in the dry tropical city of Townsville in northern Queensland, Australia. I was searching online for information about curling leaves on my Black Genoa and Brown Turkey fig trees when I came across a message and photos on this site, posted in 2017 about something similar. I can't find that message now on this site, so am hoping the writer of that message got a useful answer.
I moved from a Mediterranean type climate to the tropics two years ago and am an experienced gardener.
My two new trees were planted in 2017, grew well and produced a crop of figs that summer and autumn of 2017/18. Remember please that Australia is now in a summer season again.
This spring my trees appeared healthy and were well watered, but the leaves curled and new leaves continue to curl and the trees didn't set a crop of fruit. There doesn't appear to be any disease or insects.
