Прощай, герань! Почему я решил выбросил всю свою пеларгонию.

This video won't be a happy one. It might be quite funny, but it's about a sad topic. I'll show you what happened to my lush, blooming geraniums at the end of summer, and why I decided to get rid of them. It's all down to a small butterfly, Cacyreus marshalli, whose larvae eat the buds and young shoots of pelargoniums and geraniums from the inside. The plants look healthy for a long time, and then suddenly begin to fall apart. And, as far as I understand, there are currently no effective treatments for this pest. So, after several months of worrying, pruning, unsuccessful treatments with various insecticides, and reading Spanish-language forums, I decided to get rid of the geraniums. If they're not growing well and I'm struggling with them, then goodbye! It's not a happy topic, but I decided to share this problem and my experiences. Growing plants isn't always a successful endeavor. There are things we can't control. So I'll try growing something else, something interesting and beautiful. 🌞This video won't be a happy one.
