I have a famiiy of ladybugs that eats up all the whiteflies on my confederate rose every year. They were getting bad, and I hadn't seen any ladybugs at all until yesterday, and now i have two on the plant chomping happily away on the whiteflies. The bad thing is, I need some in the courtyard, but there is such a feast for them on the Confederate rose, they hardly ever make it to anywhere else in the gardens. I'm going to try to catch one today and move it onto the other CR in the courtyard.

I'd also like a few for the aphids on the milkweed, but maybe one of their offspring will find those.

I love ladybugs, don't you?
