Donna,
What systemic did you use on the brugsmansia? I alway use neen oil as a
spray every 7- 10 days for white flies on brugs and datura--which seem to
be even more prone to white flies than brugs. You may not like the odor of
neem oil, however, because it does have a rather pungunt old-cooking-oil
aroma. It's very distinctive! :-)
