Whats looking good July 2014

Looking at the rhs website it looks like the same damage :-(
Any way of getting rid?

 

By the time the buds open its too late ... I spray the tips of the plant (i.e. where buds are forming) with Provardo every couple of weeks (not sure when you can stop, perhaps by now as the Capsids will have finished hatching? but you'd need to check that - let me know when you find out please and I'll stop treating mine )

 

My buds look ok,just dot holes in the small leaves,,ive been chasing and squishing the critters for months from canna to canna x

 

Just in case confusion? the Capsid Bug only invades the buds on Brugs, not Cannas (as far as I know!)

 

Tithonia speciosa 'Torch' is having a good year - lots of elegant flowers on the way:

Agapanthus Luly.


Crocosmia Emily Mckenzie, very orchid like.


My first Hibiscus Bluebird flowers, planted last summer.


Penstemon Phoenix Red.


Coleus Pagoda and Saturn, from Kristen's cuttings.

 

Its slug & snail damage on my cannas but that capsid bug sunbathes on them,ive never caught one on my brug..yet! I think they were guilty of chomping the gunnera early in the season as leaves were about to open x
