UGH !!
I have been ill and unable to get out for my springtime gardening chores.
My different varieties are doing wonderfully, some already blooming their hearts out.
Unfortunately, all of my vines (including my evergeen) are literally covered with aphids. MAJOR infestation!
Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I don't usually get many but when I have seen them I have used my hose-end sprayer..I just put in lemon-dishsoap and spray..doing it daily till gone has worked for me....Hope this has helped...Jeanne
Jeanne,
Thanks for the info (and the nice thoughts!).
Wow, dish soap, sure does make sense. Info on the link was very helpful also.
There are so many it just overwhelmed me.
DH has a 'honey-do' when we gets home from work today........LOL
