Greenfly sheltering from the rain

Yesterday was a very wet day, all day. Looking out of the front window I took several shots of new growth on our Queen Elizabeth roses, following the pruning I had given them a couple of weeks ago.

It was only later when I was looking through the shots that I spotted all the greenfly sheltering along the stem of these leaves.

You need a few ladybirds to come along and gobble them up

Arrgghhh, pesky things. I have an organic bio-friendly spray that I use which is quite effective.

Thank you all for your lovely comments and favs, they are very much appreciated.

No sign of the greenfly today, they must be off sunbathing somewhere since the weather has changed again!

Against these tiny green bugs: water with baking soda - several times.
