Brugmansia

Give it a spray with this stuff, you can buy it in most decent garden centreshttp://www.jacksonsnurseries.co.uk/westland-plant-rescue-bug-killer-ornamental-plants-750ml.html
It works on RSM, only thing I have found that does.

I'm slightly sceptical that you have RSM this early in the season, unless your brugs are in a very warm position.
Are they in the house, I've had some RSM in my conservatory already this year, but that is kept around 20C during daylight.

 

Ive been spraying with neem oil but they are still hanging about and i wondered if that was whats causing the yellowing,ive repotted them all today,see if that helps

Spoilt rotten mine are in the greenhouse shivering

 

I used it as a spray; dunno about a leaf-wipe, sorry. Sounds reasonable though.

I haven't looked up the details specifically, but its a contact spray, not systemic, so a) you have to cover the plant - both sides of the leaves and b) you have to do it (from memory) every 2 days for something like a fortnight to break the breeding cycle. Its a bit tedious, but when I used it I managed to wipe them out, so I was happy . Most of the foliage I was spraying onto didn't like it, so once I had discovered that that was a problem I had the extra chore of washing all the leaves a couple of hours after spraying the Neem oil on!

I got some horticultural soap at the same time (to mix in the spray as a wetting agent)

 

I dont mind tedious i have been spraying regular over the last week,i mix a bit of washing up liquid in with the neem but i will invest in some H soap
Ive been on a spraying frenzy kristen,even my gazania,pansys & echium cuttings had aphids and pink bugs its crazy this march!

 

There is something about Phosphates (or might be Potash??) in Horticultural soap, as compared to regular detergent, which is kinder to the plants' leaves. Its a tad expensive though (no, I have no idea why, surely detergent is detergent? :( )

Might also be that Horticultural soap has a bigger impact on Aphids (soap alone does for them, as it interferes with their ability to breath through their moist skin, or something like that) so you might find horticultural soap (on its own) more effect against Aphids than washing up liquid. But coupled with Neem it will be better anyway.

Worth a Google for how often you need to repeat the spraying to break their breeding cycle.

 

@Kristen
When will the brugs from last yr start to shows signs of life ?or shall i presume they are already dead now,they've been in gh all winter,unheated thou thanks x

 

Just potted my 3 on this evening. Hopefully they'll start and take off now

 

Mine likewise. We've only had 4 or 5 frosts all winter, -1C and -2C only, so not as low as that in the conservatory.

Mine haven't started to move yet, but with some hot days they will - keep the vents closed a bit later in the morning, to boost the temperatures on sunny days, and close them a bit early in the afternoon to carry heat into the evening.

 

Thanks,i thought they could be dead but ive not scraped to see as they are at the back,i open the window and door now most days as its been nice and sunny,i close up about 5pm when the evening sun hits it to warm it up a tad before bedtime
Il be suprised if the white one makes a comeback as thats been in the garden in its pot with just fleece for protection ..fingers crossed thou

 

Does anyone have a Langenbuscher garten cutting please? i really like the look of it

 

My Brugs are on the move finally

Has anyones cutting got flower buds on already??? A few of mine have

 

No flower buds yet on the ones you sent me @joolz68 but just potted on into a 5l pots!
The root growth on these are amazing.
