Bugs and Gribbley things

Morning all

I was pottering around in my yard last night and looked at some of my plants closely

my tomatoes have some green and black fly on them but I'm aware of this and am treating them, same as the aphids on 2 of my pepper plants - I'm on to them too :D

but when I looked at my wild flower tubs (sown from seed) there were LOADS of little bugs on a couple of the plants (though not sure which ones cos I haven't a clue)

they were quite small, aphid size roughly and reddy pinky in colour

are these nasty gribbley bugs or are they ok being left on wild flowers?

 

Hi aqua

There are rose coloured aphids and also red spider type things bigger than proper red spider but littler than spiders that might be red...you know those things that crawl over window sills in summer

clear as mud innit :D

 

Gribbley? Is that a real word? If not is should be :D

 

Nothing in Encyclopedia Brittanica

but google came up with


gribbley

gribbley is a city boy who wants to go out and live off the land

Wow, you learn something new every day!

 

AAAAH I dont understand. I typed in gardener and it says that 'gardener is not a thing of the past' which is a relief. Then i tried my boyfriends name and it said that he 'is dead' :eek:

 

It knows you though Steve!!!
