Callibrocchoa

Question

I have black flies all over my 3 potted plants. They seem to be interested in the flowering portion of the calibrocchoa. The whole plant is under attack!

Answer 1

This can be solved in many ways, and they methods will not harm your plants at all! My favorite methods for insect control as follows: Garlic oil, lavender oil, neem oil, rosemary oil, and on occasion, for tougher insects... cinnamon oil. You can mix one or more of these in a spray bottle with a few drops of each in warm water, and a spoonful of coconut oil.
