My daughter (7 but very bright) is doing a project on plants.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a guide to plant disease and
insect
infestation that is written for an ordinary person?

eg, The leaves go yellow and wilt, this is a virus. Dig up the plant
and
feed the others. (or a slightly higher level)
Thank you big time.

mmmmmmmm-complicated subject for a 7 year old :~)
Yellow wilted leaves, might be a virus, or overwatering, or
underwatering.............

However these might be useful:
