Awesome aurea, Pwinget! I sure hear you about the pests this year ... I'm trying to figure out why the ants like my gardens so much, and at a loss of how to deter them. We have dogs so we can only try non-toxic products. Still, it almost seems like the ants are happy for the extra treat!
Has you fuchsia bush flowered for you yet, or is it still brand new? I imagine it will be quite a beautiful sight once it does!
