In article IVxxe.2176$vu5.73@trndny08, says...
I have lusted after these flowers since we went to PEI. I have a few plants
but armies of small brown ants are sucking the life out of the flower
stalks, and they break off in a couple of days. What should I do?


If it is in fact the ants that are damaging the flowers, fire ants are
the only small ant I can think of that do damage flowers, they should be
easy enough to follow back to their nest then address them there.
