And what will you do to those Japanese beetles, Larry? The only at all
useful idea I could think of would be plant a trap plant (rose bush,
grapevine) in the garden and close your eyes when you pass by. Astilbe is
not a great JP plant, hollyhocks (all malvas), cannas, all roseacea, and
anything you especially love.
