Painted Lady

I've been seeing quite a few lady bugs--not near as many as you Celia, but I sure hope they get busy like yours

Asa has an awesome shot of a blonde on a wildflower--tell him to quit falling asleep in his chair and get that thing posted

I had an invasion of thrips last year and one of aphids this year. I have tons of hoverflies and these ladies to combat them. I haven't seen one since they showed up!

I've done my best to plant things that are supposed to attract them--maybe this year my garden will finally reach more of a balance!

It's taken me 11 years. Lol I still don't have a great balance. I just got lucky this year.

These ladies are hard at work, too!
