Hi Folks
I am a keen Gardener and over the last 5 years I have tranformed my garden into a Cottage Garden whereby all the Flowers planted are common in what is known has a English country Garden.

Everything from Lavender to Hollyhocks, Red Hot Pokers, to Lupins. among many others.

Lupins are my problem not from slugs or Snails I am fortunate that I do not get many slugs and snailS because i have a large fish pond and that houses hundreds of Frogs and Toads who eat the snails and slugs before they can eat my plants.

Can you help?

The problem with my Lupins is that dreadful Aphid the Whitefly.
it smothers the flower heads and the leaves and devaststates the plant.

Please dont suggest washing up liquid it does not work.
Old wives Tale. If you pour washing up liquid on my Lupins
The Whitefly simply take a shower.

What I plan to do is cut the plant down to just above ground level and burn the infested plants.
Lupins being very hardy will start to grow all over again and this time I will be ready for the White fly.

The trouble is what is effective again,st these pests and Earth friendly to?
                      What do you folk suggest.
Thanks very much kindest Regards to all
Pierre.
