This happens nearly every year, the bush doesn't get pruned, it comes back into leaf and flower every year, and looks perfectly healthy until it gets eaten again. I think maybe all the frass gives it a fertiliser boost. Sparrows like it, too.
Do you have to do anything at all? |
Thanks Jeremiah! Well Like you say this has been reduced to lace and since we started work for client we've only see it deteriorate further the client isn't happy about it, so really wanted to find someway to make it look healthier. It's a food plant for these beetles so as a wildlife gardener myself I'd be happy to leave it be, maybe I can convince the client just to do the same?
Cheers
