Help - Bird of Paradise - 2007/10/21 13:20
new to the forum and new to plants recently bought a bird of paradise plant which has recently flowered, to which the flowers are now dieing off. the plant is kept in doors
a few things i've noticed is that the flowers seem to be covered in small black/brown insects, which the majority don't seem to move at all, can any one tell me what these are, where they might of come from and how to get rid of these.
secondly with the flowers wilting what do i do with them. do i just leave then cut them off or what and while on the subject of pruning, i can't find any information on when or how to do it.
and lastly there are some small brown blemishes on a couple of the leaves and a few holes (not big one's or many) which i'd thought i'd mention
any help would be much appreciated.
regards david
