My Japanese quince got aphids, right in time for Lunar New Year!! 😭 She was blossoming too, and now she’s bald after her shower and treatment. I also put her in quarantine so she can’t even celebrate with the rest of the fam…💔

Aphids are the insect you choose if you are forced to have insects on your plants! You can knock them off with water from a hose and not worry too much about needing heavy insecticides.

Oh no 😭 Bad timing! You’ll have to have a fantastic year of the dragon to make up for it 😉🐉

Spray with neem oil they should be gone in no time! Neem oil stops them from reproducing further by killing eggs/larvae
