Title: gardeners world lilies
Post by: greenjay on July 10, 2020, 21:05

good evening all. I have just finished watching gardeners world and was wondering if anybody would know the name of that lovely pink oriental lily. Stunning!
my lilies have suffered with beetle damage. I tried to squash all of the red devils but I can see the larvae have damaged quite a few leaves. how do you eradicate the larvae?
thank you

neem oil mix a tad of washing up liquid and spray over and under all over the lily every 5-7 days.
