Title: Ladybugs & Hibiscus Post by: farmer d on March 04, 2014, 08:08:59 PM I have such an abundance of ladybugs so far this winter and have been enjoying them so much I just have to share them with you all. They have a lot of personality too like the hummingbirds not to mention they eat lots of pests!!!!
Having hibiscus all over the garden sure creates a wonderful ecosystem to enjoy right on my own property. Farmer D Title: Re: Ladybugs & Hibiscus Post by: farmer d on March 04, 2014, 08:31:31 PM It's good luck when they land on you for a selfie - right?

Title: Re: Ladybugs & Hibiscus Post by: Charlie on March 07, 2014, 11:52:28 AM Ladybugs are interesting creatures. I once climbed to the top of a 7000 foot peak and found the big boulder at the very top completely covered with these guys. I have no idea what they were doing way up there.
And for sure help with pest control. I wonder why you have so many this winter? Warmer than normal probably allows for more food source for them.

I have never heard of such a thing...I'm sure that was the last thing you expected to see at the pinnacle of your climb!
