Can a plant recover from a bout of Aphids??
I'm not having much lunch as a gardener ... the latest is my lovely purple flowering climber (no idea of the name, but has sort of ivy-like leaves) started to go yellow (having been healthy and happy for months) which I thought might have been over watering. On closer inspection I've found tiny reddish-brown almost dust-like bigs that don't appear to move, but they do. These are on a lot of the leaves, top and underside. With the help of google, I think these are aphids. I also found some bug thing that looked like white mold, but actually moved when I tried to wipe it off!!
I've just sprayed with a diluted vinegar/water solution, although I hear a mild soapy water solution could also do the trick. Should I get something stronger and can my lovely plant ever recover from this or do I need to get rid of it incase the blighters start sucking the life out of all my other plants??
