Brown spots, holes on Anthurium leaves!
Comments (19)I'm an orchid grower and live in Florida, received a Anthurium as a gift two years ago. I loved the color of the 'flower' which was a rose pink. It was growing out of its pot and I quickly repotted in Miracle Gro and 1/2 orchid bark (small bark.) Unfortunately, I never researched the plant. Life was busy, we were moving into a new house. I placed the plant on a bench in strong East sun with my orchids under some shade cloth. I have been amazed at the growth and flowering. I do not have brown leaves and had no idea it was in the orchid family. It has outgrown its new pot and I plan to repot this spring. Your post is so informative, I am saving it. Thank you so much for the information. Jane...See Morelittle white spots and holes in leaves
Comments (2)Oh my!! Thank you very much. I'm new to this still and I really appreciate your help. I went right out and inspected every leaf and found about ten of the little devils....See MoreWhite spots and holes in leaves.
Comments (17)I bought Safer Rose and Garden spray. It does not kill the bees. I called them and asked. I am proud of you for working to learn more about gardening and what to use..especially since you are a beginner. I have been working real hard to go organic as well. I sprayed nothing last year as I kept getting conflicting reports of what is safe and what is not. What I have learned and if you learn this this year you will be ahead of where I was when I started. So many people get a few aphids and they go get a bomb spray that kills everything and treats every kind of disease for months. It's dangerous stuff. I have attended many a garden lecture and to a person they all said they use next to nothing in the way of chemicals. If you are careful with your choices of roses, sticking with healthier roses..disease resistant roses and are patient..the good bugs show up to eat the bad bugs. Having said that..I do have some roses I had to spray with Safer..and it's interesting to see that it seems like the roses that have been attacked are stressed roses..example..my minatures hardly get sun and they are in pots..any potted rose is more stressed. The rose that is not potted but has lots of bugs has two larger roses..towering way over it. So it makes sense to me. I have spent alot of time picking those rose slugs off. I also am not above having to use an funcicide..what was recommended to me was Sulfur..wettable sulfur..it's a powder and I use a little bit and fill the container with water..and spray it. I have only done that once. Also, if you want to be organic you have to accept less that perfect looking leaves. What I do love..is all the cool birds, and bugs..and hubby even saw a garder snake yesterday. Bees buzzing around..and I love the sound of life in my garden rather than a perfect garden and the smell of chemicals all over my garden. Stick with us..you will be glad you did...you will have a sense of pride, and your garden will be full of God's creatures....See MorePlease help with dying burning bush - brown spots and holes in leaves
Comments (7)its invasive in many areas.. and if in your area... get rid of it ... its potential is 10 feet tall and 12 wide.. over the years... so its improperly sited ... bugs had nothing to do with this.. this plant is nearly indestructible ... you could take a mature one.. and cut it to 3 inches.. and within a year or two... it would be bigger than it was before ... i suspect herbicide damage ... cut it to the ground.. and see what happens ... ken...See MoreTiffany
