Is it rot or damage from fruit fly? First year fruiting for me and most have been attacked by pests which i assume is fruit fly. They still look so pretty on the tree but will sadly be inedible 🙁

Very pretty when your eyes are relaxed like in pic 1.

Curly. You look alot warmer. Straight looks a bit harsh

Not everyday but yes. Normally moving to a foreign place, having a pretty house and garden and no responsibilities

I wouldnt use sticky traps because you would end up killing any beneficial bugs as well. They also tend to stay put once they find a nice spot so not likely to get caught in a trap. easiest to pick them off with tongs, they are slow moving and easy to spot on once orange. I have removed hundreds of the suckers this way!

I just squish them with my fingers, just run your fingers along the stem/ bulb. They are so soft they easily turn to mush or drop off. They multiply quickly though so good to inspect often

Box fans. Prefer them to pedestal, tower and bladeless

Glad for you. Its really alarming to lose alot of hair. Yours looks so nice

Looks like pink wax scale. Try white oil spray.

100% hot. Also got hotter with age. Daddy Hardy is my ultimate dream man.

They also become a magnet for ibis’s. Then you would also have to deal with the mess, stench and noise.

Agree, though i still cant do winged eyeliner to save myself. Also find makeup reviews/swatches very useful, when deciding what to buy

You have a nice shaped head, the bald suits you

Possibly a duranta. If it has purplish flowers with orange berries dont eat them they’re not safe for humans or dogs.
