Our “gogga” of the month for June (Scale) causes yellowing plants, which eventually die. Scale can also cause the growth of sooty mould on plants.
Scale are little critters which suck the sap from plants, leaving them with no nutrition to survive. If left untreated, the plants will eventually die off.
Treat with a contact insecticide. Visit your local GCA garden centre forย advice on the best insecticide for you!
We don’t supply anything ourselves, but our gardening gurus can assist with any other gardening related enquiries you may have!
