All the sticks, and vines, and clumps, sent to me thru DG, I tend to lovingly, inspecting every leaf and stem...
I hold the tips up to the light, looking underneath as well.. and send the ugly fat little bumps, to what I call APHID HELL...
Most people would spray or dust, as I have done that too.. but I see the cripness of leaf edges, and do what I should do. Sometimes I strip off all the leaves, caress in apology, and croon them back along, promise of Spring not to far off, and swear to never do it again, and Beg them to come back, they give me a sign of forgiveness, and send out leaves just like that.
Lady bugs are everywhere, but they all have met the fate, of old spray poisons in the soil, so they came a bit too too late.
