Stuff on leaf
Looks like WhiteFly, they lay eggs in a circle & have all this whispy white
stuff. A soap or oil spray would do. I was told that the eggs hatch every three days so you need to spray often until they are gone. They love Hibiscus & large leafed plants. I think I used Neem oil. Good luck Cheers Wendy "Paul O." wrote in message ... Can any one tell what this is on a leaf of one of my plants? Thank you. -- Paul O. |

Paul, You don't have to buy the pure Neem, I found a brand by Greenlight at
Armstrong nurseries, just check at your local nsy. Cheers Wendy "Paul O." wrote in message ... By the way, can Neem oil be found locally in stores, or do you have to get it online? -- Paul O.

Use 1 part dish-washing soap (liquid) to 40 parts water. the mix will soak into their spiracles and drown them. This works for other baddies, too, such as aphids. For scale, use 1 part soap to 20 parts water, leave it sit for about 15 minutes, then wash off the plant. -- Over here, we cal it Ed Lawrence's Miracle Cure, he has a phone-in show every Monday on CBC's Radio Noon (Pntario only), and is revered by all gardeners in Ontario.
