Went to pick some rhubarb today for the firsttime in a couple of weeks
and found one crown somthered in blackfly! In all my 50 odd years og
growing it, I've never seen this before in any of my gardens. I do get
blackfly on the broad beans, which I spray regulaly - looks as if I'll
have to include the rhibarb, but I'm a bit concerned about eating it
after that

Is this usual or something odd?

There appears to be rather a lot of blackfly around this year in my
garden. I haven't seen any ladybirds either, but I /have/ seen a lot of
ants "farming" the blackfly.

My roses are suffering badly from blackspot this year too; I've sprayed
them with fungicide for the first time in 7 years as it's so bad.
Perhaps it's just a bad year for some pests.

I have masses of blackfly on my Abutilon Nabob to the extent that
they're killing the flowers, or at perhaps it's their honeydew that's
causing mould that's killing the flowers. Either way I'm going to have
to resort to chemistry very soon, but I've not had the shrub itself
for long enough to know if this is a one-off or an annual event.
