Plant Events from our members
dnrevel On April 21, 2023 Maintenance performed
Moved to the greenhouse, especially after finding little white creepy crawlies in the dirt under the drip saucer indoors (I've fought off the adult aphids but still!)
dnrevel On October 15, 2022 Winterized
Brought indoors after soaking soil and treating with Neem. Regardless of preventative measures, still prone to red aphids indoors. Using an organic insecticidal spray (Castile soap, a tad of vinegar, minced garlic) and will report back. Neem and DEarth did nothing to stop the infestation.
dnrevel On September 28, 2022 Maintenance performed
Moved into greenhouse. Forecast 38 degrees at night.
dnrevel On June 10, 2022 Obtained plant
Obtained locally. Grew well over the summer in a partial sun spot on the south facing fence shaded by a small amelanchier tree.
