Bugs & Roses
Hi everyone, I've been outside dealing with a couple of problems I wasn't
expecting to have quite so early in the season - tantrix moths & aphids!! My
roses are becoming bug food! I hate squishing those rose grubs (from the
Tantrix moths), but I hate them rolling up in & eating the leaves on my
roses even more. The aphids I will just spray with the garden hose on jet to
get rid of them. I thought I had done all of them a couple of days ago, but
I think I missed a couple of bushes & now they're back. I hate bugs and I
love roses... it's so hard to reconcile.
