I was so surprised this morning to discover that my cherry tart had bounced back from my overzealous efforts to keep it safe after finding aphids on it. Seriously thought it was dead. I’m buzzing with happiness that Cherry is regrowing as it was one of my Wishlist plants.
This is also a really good example of why quarantining new plants is a must until you can thoroughly check them over. I would not recommend spritzing succulents with water/detergent to get rid of aphids either. If anyone has any better solutions to that particular problem I’d love to hear them.
they must be very hearty. I had one in a pot outside that the dog got into last winter. I found it alive this spring and replanted it and its doing great!
