Marge,  I don't have leaf miner in my Helichrysum, didn't know it was
possible. Now I am nervous I will get it! (I do have Calamintha growing in
the same pot, maybe that's why) But, we get severe leaf miner on Aquilegia,
beets, spinach, chard and other greens.  Using a floating row cover stops it
on the veggies but wouldn't be much fun on the Columbines..........Marilyn
