Camellia Pest
 
Hello all,


I have a young Camellia x williamsii "Donation" sitting out in my back
garden right now, and something seems to be taking a nibble out of the
leaves.

Some of the leaves are sporting semi-circular notches, between the size of a
5p piece and 20p piece.

Anybody know of anything (and hopefully not vine weevil) that would munch on
Camellias in this fashion?


Thanks in advance,


John

May be a bit early for leaf-cutting bees but they'd do what you describe.

Martin
