I have a small blackthorn (prunus spinosa) I got from a nursery which I repotted the beginning of April. Since it was from a nursery it had a large amount of fine roots, but also some large thick roots circling the nursery pot. When repotting I removed a large amount of roots to deal with these large circling ones but did leave a good amount of fine roots.
Since then it has been fine, steadily putting out some new grown and more buds. But I recently noticed some leaves are starting to become mottled or yellow, are curling a bit and a few have gone crispy at the edges (see pictures).
It is potted in mainly pumice with some perlite and composted bark. I can't see any visible pests, a few aphids have looked like they are trying to move in but a friendly spider has taken up residence and seems to be doing a good job of catching them, not seen many on the leaves.
Is this anything to be worried about? If so what can I do about it
