    Greenfly/aphids?   I'd use a spray of mild soap solution (I find Ecover works well). image

    a solution of washing up liquid and diluted with water put in a sprayer,

    completely spray both sides of all leaves and the entire plant this will sort the problem out do it 2/3 times for 1 week then continue doing so once a week this will keep them at bay. its better than spray insecticides and green too.
