Hi,
A few days ago i noticed that my honeysuckles leaves were all
shrivelled up (not been out for a while due to the rain). once the
weather got better I had a look and found it was covered in greenfly
(not too sue what type but they were small and green so I'm guessing
they are green fly). I bought a bug gun (bio) and sprayed it.
Will it recover?
Is there anything i can do to get it back to health. I have noticed
that the one next to it has grey patches on the leaves as well.
Is there anything i can do to stop the fly's attacking it?
Not a lot, but don't panic. If it is one of the japonica or
periclymenum species or hybrids (as it probably is), losing its
leaves won't kill it. Not much will, actually :-)
Regards,
Nick Maclaren.
