    Desert Rose
    I have a Desert Rose that I kept inside all winter. It has some little bugs-aphids-I think. What can I do to get rid of them. I know the plant does not like its leaves to be wet. Also, what is the best food for this plant and how often? Thanks, Sue

    Hi, sue,
    Here is a link for some good information on the Desert Rose:
    http://www.bonsai-bci.com/species/adenium.html

    It tells about watering and feeding.
    One of the "dusts" available for aphids is call Sevin, which you buy at any Farm Products Store, K-Mart, or other large department store.
    Just sprinkle a little over the infected areas.
