Growing Rosella, also Queensland Jam Plant, Roselle

View the Rosella page

My rosella plants are taking their time growing (slowly), and something is eating small round holes in the leaves, also they get a white aphid like funges on the stems. Can you advise what is the best repellant to use in these cases. I have noticed a lot of orange ladybird beetles on the zucchini also, will the same repellant be ok for them?
