Are there any less aggressive systemic insecticides available? I certainly
don't want to massacre the local wildlife. I have 2 problems ... lots of
whitefly on my fuchsias (mostly in a conservatory) ...


Wash the leaves with the water you have left over after you have washed
up. Plant lots of tagetes in the greenhouse. Never have any whitefly on
my toms if I have some tagetes dotted in amongst them )))

and an unknown pest
on my Phygelius.

I think you will find that is a pest which attacks only phygelius. I
have a friend who has actually dug up all phygelius plants simply
because she is fed up with trying to get rid of these pests
