The leaves have curled up quite a lot. I can't see any aphids/ pests and there are apples coming.

Only planted it ladt year, andcwhen it arrived the delivery had knocked the top off it 😞. It seems to have re- crowned itself.

Any ideas/ tips?

It’s the dry weather. Water as much as you can, not just a sprinkle, but several buckets full.

Thanks @Beebumble2

I have been watering well plus lots of rain here last month.

Will keep going though.

Should apple tree leaves look like that?

One of mine, planted 4 years ago is looking like that. It’s ok thought, just the hot weather.

The first step with a one year old tree is to prune the top off, to encourage branching. Your delivery man may simply have saved you a job
