I came across this list and thought I would share it. I consider it a general guideline because some of the plants listed have been attacked by the beasties. For instance, I know that petunias and dogwoods have been affected by them here in my area. Sorry for the long post. The following are plants not attractive to Japanese beetles (some even appear to be completely immune): ageratum ailanthus arborvitae ash aster babies breath balsam balsam fir bamboo beautyberry beebalm begonia black locust bleeding heart boxelder brown eyed susan butternut caladium candytuft carnation Carolina allspice Catawba rhododendron catnip Chinese azalea Chinese lantern-plant Chinese redbud chrysanthemum clematis cockscomb columbine coneflower coralbells coreopsis cornflower cosmos crassula cryptomeria English ivy euonymus false dragonhead flowering tobacco forget me not forsythia foxgove dogwood dusty miller gaillardia, gardenia goldenglow ginkgo ground myrtle hazelnut hemlock hickory hollies hydrangea hyssop Iceland poppy iris Japanese honeysuckle Japanese pagodatree Japanese pieris Japanese spurge juniper lantana larkspur lilac lilies lily of the valley lions heart magnolia maidenhair fern maidenhair tree maples other than Norway matrimonyvine mignonette mimosa mockorange motherwort mountain bluet mountain laurel mulberry mullein nasturtium oaks other than chestnut and pin Oriental poppy ox-eye daisy pampas grass pansy pear persimmon petunia phlox pine pinxterbloom azalea plaintain lily portulaca privet purple loosestrife pyracantha pyrethrum daisy rabbiteye blueberry rosebay rhododendron sedum smoketree snapdragon snowberry spearmint spiderwort spruce strawflower swamp azalea sweetgum sweetpea sweetpotato sweet scaboius sweet William tamarisk tawny daylily tiger lily tuliptree verbena violet Virginia dayflower wandering Jew waterlily white top white turtlehead wild bergamot wild indigo winterberry winter honeysuckle yew yucca |
