KenNEGA said:They look great. Keep posting pic's. The Jap. beetles have destroyed all my blooms and a lot of foliage. Worst I have ever seen them.

When I started growing roses a year or so ago they were eaten alive by Chinese rose beetles. I contacted a member of the Honolulu Rose Society who suggested that I shine a light on them. So I installed two flood lights controlled by a timer that are on from dusk to dawn. I haven't seen a rose beetle since.
