RUTH'S SHOOTS

If you like to cut flowers from your garden and bring them indoors you may have problems with these......

pollen beetles! This photo is of some on one of my Arum Lily flowers. If after you've cut them you put them in some water and stand them in a dark place (like a garage) for an hour or so and allow just a chink of light to come in...the beetles will all fly towards the light and leave your blooms pest free. ...then you can bring them into the house.
