Asad day for my Lupins.

Hi folks
due to the Whitefly attack on my Lupins I had no choice but to cut all the Lupins off at Ground level and place the plants in the trash. I found a earth friendly Whitefly killer spray and finished off the whitefly on the base plants and flooded the soil to kill off the rest.
That was two days ago. Sucess I have not seen a single Whitefly since and my Lupins are already starting to resprout. They regenerate so quickly it amazing.I hope to have a second more sucessful batch of Lupins and flowers without Whitefly before the summer is over. Mother Nature works wonders.

Best Regards to all Pierre.
