My beautiful ‘falling stars’ has been so healthy and full of flowers for over five months, I have used your fertiliser pills and yellow sticky squares it has gathered a lot of tiny green fly. it’s not stopped them. .and it has now lost all its flowers. I don’t Use chemical sprays. What is the answer? Should I try and take leaf cuttings?
You could always try a biological pest preventative against aphid if you don't want to use any chemicals.
The yellow sticky traps will significantly reduce the aphids and you could use them in congunction with repeated sprays of diluted of washing-up liquid or SB Plant Invigorator. https://www.dibleys-shop.com/products/sb-plant-invigorator

My 9 Strepto plants arrived within 3 days, and all looked healthy, but all the plant plugs were very wet. All plants were removed from its packaging and planted in the pots and the Dibley Strepto compost supplied in the order. We did not water the plugs at this stage, already being so wet.
Within 3 days 3 of the plants had dull limp leaves, and shortly after had rotted. A few weeks later, 3 more did the same, just leaving 3 reasonable looking Strepto's. I have already provided you with a picture.
Really pleased with my starter pack of 4 cape primrose. Packaging & delivery excellent. Great having soil, pots etc . So had every to ging to get started. My little plants already are sprouting little leaves - so healthy. I think I’m going to get addicted to this plant! Thank you to dibleys.
