Image: Common Pea Plant Problems and Organic Solutions

The image is a detailed, landscape-oriented educational infographic about common problems affecting pea plants and natural, organic solutions to manage them. The overall visual style combines realistic garden photography with rustic, illustrated design elements. The background resembles weathered wooden planks, giving the infographic a warm, organic, farm-to-garden feel. At the top center, a wooden sign displays the headline “Common Pea Plant Problems & Organic Solutions,” with cream-colored lettering for the main title and green lettering for the subtitle, reinforcing the natural theme.

In the center of the composition is a healthy, vibrant pea plant growing in dark soil. The plant features lush green leaves, white pea flowers, and several well-formed green pods, symbolizing the goal of successful pea cultivation. Surrounding this central plant are multiple framed sections, each highlighting a specific problem that gardeners commonly encounter when growing peas. Each problem is paired with a concise visual description and a recommended organic remedy.

On the upper left, a panel labeled “Powdery Mildew” shows close-up pea leaves coated with a white, dusty residue. Beneath the image, a short caption explains the symptom as a white powdery coating, and a small illustrated spray bottle labeled neem oil represents the organic treatment. Below that, another left-side panel titled “Root Rot” depicts damaged roots in soil, accompanied by text describing yellowing and wilting plants. A small shovel icon and text indicating improved soil drainage emphasize prevention and treatment through better water management.

On the upper right, a panel labeled “Aphids” displays a close-up of tiny green insects clustered along a pea stem. The solution is shown with a bottle icon labeled insecticidal soap, suggesting a natural way to control sap-sucking pests. Below it, another panel titled “Pea Moth Larvae” shows caterpillars feeding inside a pea pod. The recommended solution is the use of row covers, illustrated by a lightweight garden fabric structure protecting plants.

At the bottom center, a section labeled “Bird Damage” shows a small bird near young pea plants, highlighting how birds can harm seedlings and pods. The suggested solution, garden netting, is shown with green mesh imagery. Additional small wooden sign elements along the bottom list general organic gardening practices, including rotating crops, using mulch and compost, hand-picking pests, and watering at the base of plants. Together, the image clearly communicates practical, eco-friendly strategies for maintaining healthy pea plants while preserving a natural garden ecosystem.
