What's eating my plum pudding heuchera?

Plum Pudding Heuchera is most commonly damaged by vine weevil — larvae devour roots and kill plants suddenly. Adults notch the attractive purple-red leaves. Aphids colonize flower stems in warmer months. Apply nematode drenches to soil in late summer and inspect roots when dividing to catch vine weevil early.

Notched leaf margins from adult feeding; larvae destroy the root system causing plant collapse Apply beneficial nematodes (Steinernema kraussei) in late August to moist, warm soil; replace dead plants

Soft green or black insects clustered on flower scapes and new foliage; sticky honeydew deposit Spray with insecticidal soap or diluted neem oil; encourage predatory insects in the garden

Holes in leaf blades near the ground; slime trails visible on crown and soil surface Use iron phosphate bait; remove dense mulch from around crowns; hand-pick on wet evenings
