Carol says September 14, 2010 at 1:04 pm Jackie, This is a great capture of their colony. One plant that seems to not be bothered by their presence. ;>)
Jacqueline D'Elia says September 15, 2010 at 10:52 am I’ve sprayed them with a hose everyday for the past four days and they are a lot less of them now. Hoping ladybugs will show up soon for a feast.
