Lily Beetle again
Today I have seen 2 lily beetles on my potted lilies. If I have found
2 you can bet there are more. Has anyone else got them yet? Is there any part of the country to which they have not yet spread? Pam in Bristol |

I don't know how far they've got, I'm on the south coast, we've had them for years. Steve |

I've usually only seen them on my lillies and fritillaries, but this year I've seen them on Alstroemeria and Alliums .. no damage noted, though. Spider (In SE London) |
