We do not use pesticides on our plants but spray Neem on them to  protect from chewing and sucking insects.  It is also a fungicide.  It does not kill anything, just changes the flavor of the leaf to taste different and the bugs go elsewhere.  Be careful as there are many imitations on the market, some with poison added.  Ours is 100% pure.  We sell Neem and Neem trees here at Crowley Nursery.  For other Neem products,  please click below.

21 different kinds of butterflies visit us around the grounds.  We spray Neem on the old growth and let them eat the new growth, and we can still enjoy the blooms and foliage.  Many of the butterfly plants are loved by our hummingbirds that live here year round.
