I went over to a friends house yesterday to look at her coleus in the basement. They were so covered with mealy bugs I couldn't believe it! I think her eyesight must be failing her. We threw out most of them (and probably should have thrown out ALL). She had been spraying with 'pyola' or something like that, but I told her: WELL IT'S NOT WORKING!!
I had the problem last year, but this year I used a systemic and so far have been bug free.
The ones in pictures are 'city lights' and 'crimson velvet'.
the white dots on 'crimson velvet' are NOT bugs!! Just some perlite.
