Default Bronze Fennel

Aphids causing mayhem on my Bronze Fennel, never had that before, anyone

Yes Kate you are not alone. I discovered the tops covered in greenfly
only yesterday. I have tried the washing up liquid and water method,
not quite sure if it has worked or not as they are still pretty covered
and it's hard to tell if they are dead yet. :-(

sorry it has happened to your plants but glad I am not alone.Very
strange, why this year!


Odd.
The wild fennel (not bronze) that grows prolifically down here in any patch
of spare ground is doing business as usual.

Might be illegal to dig it up, but would be willing to do so for interested
parties as it is a weed in these parts.
