Established Tree Posts: 6959 04-05-08 14:50 Established Tree	The dreaded lily beetle has arrived in my garden and has been chewing on my young lily plants. Killed 10-12 yesterday on 4x 6inch plants - so I went looking and on a container of newly emerged lillies found 4 more. So I shall be keeping a close eye on them now for more of the little b******s
