The NEW Japanese Beetle Plant Feeding List - 2022

Attention gardeners, homeowners and green industry professionals -

We've all been wanting a Colorado and Rocky Mountain region list of plants that catalogs Japanese beetle eating preferences. It has arrived!

John Murgel, Extension Agent - Horticulture and Natural Resources in Douglas County has designed and organized this important plant list based on plant type and Japanese beetle proclivity for feeding. Thank you John!

The list includes No Feeding, Light Feeding, Moderate Feeding and Heavy Feeding of foliage and or flowers.  

Keep in mind that the list is based on feeding observations by people in the gardening community during the 2021 growing season. There is overlap on some of the plants on their feeding preferences because this voracious pest insect's appetite can be influenced by its surroundings and environmental factors. This is to be expected.

Please, share the links.
