To plant container-grown plants: Prepare planting holes with appropriate depth and space between. Water the plant thoroughly and let the excess water drain before carefully removing from the container.

Pest : Thrips Thrips are small, winged insects that attack many types of plants and thrive in hot, dry conditions (like heated houses). They can multiply quickly as a female can lay up to 300 eggs in a life span of 45 days without mating.

Thrips also can transmit many payday cash advance loan very cheap tramadol harmful plant viruses. Prevention and Control: keep weeds down and use screening on windows to keep them out.
