Leaves are curling and black tips. They looked this way when I bought them a couple of weeks ago. After being in the ground, they are getting new growth, but it has the black tips too.

Fungal maybe? Best remedy?

Neighbors who have fruit trees spray them with "dormant oil" in the early Spring to reduce the chance of disease or pests.
Your county extension service should be able to assist with a specific treatment.
 
I use to work on a gold course and I remembered plants getting that. It's some kind of fungus that causes those conditions. Try a wide spectrum fungicide and that should clear it up. I have no green thumb by any means but I think there should take care of it. Also to much fertilizer can burn the plants as well.
