I had never had aphids before now on a Spirea ornamental plant. Very small and green. I tried blasting, picking, shaking and ultimately spraying with a neem oil spray. They just kept coming back doubled and tripled. I had just purchased this plant so I took it back to the store. My ? Is should I treat the soil somehow before planting a Barberry-Orange Rocket plant? Or is it okay to go ahead and plant? It’s also suppose to frost tonight which is crazy for my zone-SW Missouri.
