At least you have the luxury of keeping the plants out doors. My ferns would shrivel up and blow away in the cold winter weather. They were outside all last summer, and then they were given to me to baby sit until the cold weather backs off. Any ideas about how to get rid of them indoors. (the whiteflys, not the ferns)

Well...here is what I learned last year. Get your vacuum cleaner out and suck them up in flight...really...I promise...I thought the source was joking with me. Then you have to mix a light solution of liquid dish soap and water (Jerry Baker says to add 3 medium Rhubarb leaves)and wash the plants, especially the undersides of the leaves. I washed my entire outside garden (3 beds) AND all of my crepe myrtles 3 stinkin times last year..it was a 2 day event! So, here's wishin you lots-O-luck! ![[thumb]](im/graemlins/thumb.gif)

Search The Garden Helper:
I planted 6 crepe myrtles last year and may have 2 that survived! I had to work non stop on the garden to save what I could of the tomatoes, peppers, squash and eggplant. I just don't know if it will be worth the investment to try to battle them again this year...I am SOOOOO discouraged!
