I have been gardening for years, and this year has been a year of “what the heck” is going on.
First off, the portulaca in my gardens, flowerpots, rose garden etc. is out of hand. Trying to keep up with the time-consuming task of picking it, and not to mention the sore back, has become a nightmare for me.
Secondly, potato bugs (or beetles)!!!! Never in my life have I seen that many of them at one time…..same goes with the eggs. It is almost like one came and decided to throw a party and bam, they have moved in and aren’t leaving without a fight.
Idea’s on how to remove these two nuisances from my property?? I am willing to try anything as they are no longer welcome.
Here is a lovely picture of one of my roses, I would show you the full garden but one word PORTULACA!
