Powder mildew on phlox and bee balm
black spot on roses
Japanese beetles on most anything
distorted leaves on roses
discolored leaves/rot on geranium
rust on hollyhock
holes in hosta
flowers that seem to not bloom completely (I address this with fertilizers
now)
That should be more specific. You can tell that I usually try to get a "one
kind fits all". I use Funginol and Sevin as my primary treatments. I have
also tried the systemic products for roses. I have Orthene, Malathion, and
Benomyl in the cabinet. I can never remember which to use on which plant
problems. I need to make a list on my cabinet door or write with permanent
marker on the bottle. I would like to get away from these chemicals and go
with more organic treatments.
