this year and it looks like it's being eaten by some type of bug. Any suggestions?
I have a new Hydrangea planted?
Liquid Sevin at any hardware/home and garden store. Get a spray bottle and mix accordingly and spary it as needed. This product has been on the market for many years and is perfect for treating a wide range of plant eatin' critters. It's also very safe to use.
In a week, them plant munchers will be in buggy heaven.
Reply:3 types of culprits might be to blame;caterpillars, slugs or beetles.
Caterpillars should be picked off in early morning and destroyed.
For beetles, apply a solution of one quart water mixed with 1 Tbsp dry laundry soap--any kind. Spray on in cool weather or at night, then rinse off after the sun warms leaves.
For slugs, place a damp piece of cardboard under plant overnight. Early the next morning, flip over the cardboard to see if you have slugs. Remove them and flush or feed to chickens.
Reply:Get some greenhouse sticky cards and place them near the foliage. You'll capture whatever it is!
