The sticks called roses I planted back in winter have done really well. They don’t look like sticks anymore!
We get aphids in hardcore numbers and I’ve been watching the roses like a hawk to make sure they’re not being attacked. Just about overnight the aphids made their move.
If anyone has an army of lady birds they’re not utilising, feel free to send them Burnley way!

Oh dear…. white oil spray? You could also get a small paintbrush and brush them off into a bucket of water and drown the little buggers.
