Default How do I attract/grow aphids (I am NOT kidding!)

I agree with the nasturtium recommendation.
I love nasturtiums but stopped planting them because they were inescapably
black-aphid magnets.
If I wanted a bazillion aphids -- to feed baby geckos for instance -- I
would plant nasturtiums.

"Oh, sir! The flowers, they are wild," replied the timid creature.
