NPL Day Event Bee Balm seedling #945917

Asked September 26, 2026, 3:09 PM EDT

What are these yellow eggs that are on the seedling I recieved at the NPL Day event in Hastings? Need to know if it's safe to plant or should be destroyed...

Expert Response

I am sorry but I cannot identify the item you are concerned about from photos.  I suggest you pick a few leaves and bring them into a local garden center to see if they can tell if they are insect eggs or possibly aphids (if they move they are aphids). Perhaps you could find out who supplied the plants and contact them with your question.  Or perhaps you could just wash the items in question off the plants using insectidial soap.  Once clean, the plants could be planted.
