Hello everyone, My fiancé and I are spending our first summer in our new home and I was really looking forward to our honeysuckle blooming when - tragedy - the flowers were destroyed by what looks like a chronic disease, help!
Yep. Sure looks like our honeysuckles when they get aphids. Easy to treat - insecticidal soap spray or regular soap if you haven't got that on-hand. Repeat the spray every week or less until the plants are free of aphids. Then look at drainage & soil fertility. Maybe do some mulching with something nutritious to improve conditions for next year.
