Your 2025 Garden

[NanaK]

I love daylilies too! They come in so many colors and take such little care. The deer do love them. I moved several clumps around the back deck hoping they would be safe. Worked well for a couple years but this year not so much.

Yesterday in the garden I found a couple japanese beetles. I'll be keeping a check on the bean foliage and my hibiscus. The beetles can really wreck the leaves.

One thing I love about here, there are no Japanese beetles.

You are fortunate. Some years here they are not so bad and some there are so many. I've seen greenbean and hibiscus foliage look like lace they eat them so bad.

I would think you would have less fungal disease in the garden as well. It is hot and humid here. I've already had to prune the tomatoes because of leaf spots. I have one plant I may pull early. I don't like the way it is looking. Nothing seems to stop it. I just try to slow it down.
