God knew what He was doing
when He sent a gentle breeze
and brought a lovely butterfly
to set my heart at ease.
The happiness of your friendship
and the gentleness of your words
have touched my life in special ways
and now I feel assured.
Thank you for your loyalty
and for reading everyday.
I only hope you find things
to make a happy day.
That photo says it all, doesn't it? At least to a gardener! :) I am so grateful they do not eat daylilies. They infrequently settle on them, and I've seen them inside the fading blooms, but no holes on the perfect blossoms. Yes!
We are taking out the altheas, though, and cutting back the hollyhocks. The darn bugs eat them alive. The hollyhocks should set out side shoots and, by the time they bloom again, the Japanese beetles should be done for the season.

No offense, but, YUCK!
I hate those things! I hope you and your family has a great 4th of July.
I have an ongoing fight with these nasty things....wish I knew plants that they didn't devour.

Hi Rhonda...I guess that I have never seen them harm daylilies either. I have lots of daylilies. What suggestions for hanging baskets?
