I resorted to using a systemic this year, because I had such a big problem with mealy bugs last year. I used Bayer tree and shrub systemic and so far no problems with mealy bugs on the treated plants. I did find, just yesterday, a mealy bug on an untreated plant. But I've also noticed that the gnats are gone, and I had a lot of them last year. I also use those horrible sticky tapes. I hate it when I run into one, but they do collect the gnats!

This plant in the picture is either 'delphina' or 'pele', I think. It did not have a label. Does anyone have a plant that looks like this?
