Ajuga reptans doing absolutely poorly since it got hit by powdery mildew in late summer, now shed a lot of leaves, not sure if it will make it? | Balham

Remove the affected leaves and spray the rest with one part milk two parts water mix and repeat a couple of times (a week apart). My forget-me-nots are often covered with powdery mildew but a quick spray and tidy up brings them back to full health. ☺

@ublaszko thanks for the tip! Milk! Who knew!

Yep, oddly enough. It's not as long - lasting as treating the plant with a fungicide but it's a good enough alternative. 😆
