Can you tell me what is wrong with this plant?

September 9, 2017A.This looks like a form of leaf scorch. Leaf scorch can have several causes: direct heat damage, excessive fertilizer application or overwatering (which damages the roots and leads to symptoms on the leaf as well), or a bacterial infection in some shrubs. See these articles for details:

http://www.fruit.cornell.edu/berrytool/blueberry/leaves/BBleafbrowning.htmThis article is about bacterial leaf scorch in trees, but shrubs can be affected too by other leaf scorch bacteria:
https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/tgen/bacterial-leaf-scorch-disease.htmThe middle picture also shows young leaves which have turned yellow while the leaf veins remain green, which is a sign of a possible nutrient deficiency of iron or manganese. See this article:

September 18, 2017Q.An Plant Identification application
I'd like to know if there is an Apple App that does plant identifying by picture. I got PlantNet but it does not work well.

Certified ExpertA.There are a few, but they are all about the same unless you pay for them. Visit your iTunes store, and look under for similar apps. They are all limited, and nothing takes the place of personal knowledge of the plant.

October 4, 2017A.Can you give more information? Your growing zone and an image of the plant and it's leaves would help.
You can also check with your County Extension Office.
