something eating my hollyhocks in florida?

Posted by: paco | Comments (1)

I am fairly new in the gardening business and have sunflowers, primroses, morning glories, zinnia’s, and hollyhock’s. Unfortunately, bits of the leaves on my hollyhock’s keep going missing when I wake up in the morning. None of my other flowers have been getting eaten. I have thoroughly looked at the leaves and find no bugs, and all my plants are in a pool cage. At first I thought maybe the sun was burning the leaves because they need mostly shade, so I moved it to a shadier area, but to no avail. I believe it to be the work of japanese beetles or something similar because it happens at night. I am going to examine them tonight to test my theory. If I do find beetles on the plant, how do I get rid of them without hurting the plant besides picking them off? Thanks, Jeremy.

We live up in Mass and hate the weather. We have been to FL many times on vacation but have seriously been thinking of moving there. Possibly to Boca Raton area? Or Coral Springs? Is it nice to live there year round? Are the schools good? My husband does commercial moving .. is there any of that in Florida? Just would love to hear from people who live in Florida how they like it? I hear the bugs are BAD and the humidity is bad in summer but I can’t take these long winters anymore. We are thinking of a gated community area. Please .. I’d love to hear your thoughts and any suggestions.

Nobody in the country really knows where to bill the Seminoles in 2010, with their new brands on coaching, play making, and conditioning.  Will they be rejuvenated and back on pace with the Miami’s and the Florida’s? Or …
