Bugs eat Clematis petals and leaves

Santa Ana, CA(Zone 9b)

Hi all,

Being frustrated of not being able to look at the pictures full size, I subscribed. Ah ha, I now can view the pretty flowers you folks have.

I am not so sure about the name of my clematis, but it looks like Romana. I will post the picture later to show how pathetic my clematis is. Bugs have been eaten my clematis, but I am afraid to spay anything on it. I don't want to hurt my clematis. PLEASE HELP!!!

Thank you

I use Ortho Bug Geta Plus, it kills snails, earwigs, ants, you name it!

Maybe that will stop your flowers from getting chewed. It worked for me, now I can enjoy my clematis blooms hole-free.
