Ochrana okrasných rostlin před chorobami a škůdci - Kapesní příručka pro domov a zahradu – Hrudová Eva (2012)

We love to surround ourselves with plants and beautify our homes and gardens with them. Flowers, shrubs, and trees complete our environment and make our lives more pleasant. However, this purpose is only fulfilled when they are healthy, growing, and blooming as they should and as we expect. Like all living organisms, plants suffer from various diseases, are damaged by various pests, and then need our help. This practical guide will advise us on what to do when a plant is yellowing or wilting, when it is stunted or twisting and deforming, when it is damaged by pests, mold, or rot, in short, when it is sick and declining. Its authors, Doc. Ing. Ivana Šafránková and Ing. Eva Hrudová, have selected a diverse range of the most commonly grown ornamental plants – both indoor and outdoor, annuals, perennials, and woody plants, compiled their most common pests and diseases, described and photographed the symptoms by which each plant "cries for help." And most importantly, the authors advise what to do with a sick plant, which product or treatment to apply, and in the attached tables provide a list of available and commonly used protective agents.
