Greetings and Happy Holidays, list!Wll,for years i've been using a safe method
of aphid removal for Drosera...The Mighty D. capensis...Since most cp'ers know
of this beautiful,yet obnoxious weed,It suddenly turns
into........Aphidslayer!!!{O.K. Brian,back to earth now!!}Anyways,a D.
capensis leaf will remove aphids safely from even the smallest,finickiest
Drosera.It may be a little time consuming,but does a great job..Make sure
there's plenty of muscilage on the capensis leaf and really {bomb} those
sundew growing crowns..You'll notice that nearly all aphids can be removed
safely.What the leaf doesn't remove,the muscilage will drown though a few
tries may be necessary...Hey, just an old time cp'er trick! Hope it
helps!.......Asking Santa for Heliams and Tryphoyophyllum,Brian :) :) :)
