Today, I was digging out a patch of John Creech out of my semp bed and spotted this in the uprooted soil: A Grub? Didn't look for more but this is the 2nd I have bumped into in the last couple of months in my semp bed.

It is curled up in first pic and then unwound itself and started crawling away. Camera shy?

I think these caused some of my semps to be hollowed out in Fall 2012. This was the reason I ended up at ATP looking for : HELP. Lynn, (part time Dr. Houseleek...) remember this pic?
