Bud too long disease. And insect control

Oh.. I've got that dreaded bud too long disease...I'm not sure what to do for it...maybe I can go lighter on my special flowering mystery sauce... Even if it didn't have that double condition of the BTLD
Also... My insect control. 1/2 the time he spends under the leaf. Munching on tiny insects there... And the other 1/2 the time it's on top of the leaf awaiting some butterfly dropping off catapilars ...

Gordon,sorry to hear that you are having problems with those buggers.I hope you can get it under control.

The Bruges and the passion vine are earlier plantings I made..and there are the new ones... The grass takes over so quickly.. They don't call her road Thaçh for nothing..

Well Gordon,they are beautiful.I hope your mother will to be able to enjoy them when she gets settled back in at home.I am sure you are waiting to see how well enough she settles back in at home,before you go back to the big apple.I am sure she will be in good hands while she is back home.
