This ladybug likes my post.

 

Though cute with their bright red and polka dot capes, Ladybugs are extremely aggressive, possessing a voracious appetite for aphids. They are a welcome sight, landing among the greenery before setting off to work.

 

 

Did you know that the Praying Mantis was the very first Yoga Master, able to strike a pose at any angle, even upside down for infinite amounts of time? So stealthy, they often go unnoticed by the human eye and unsuspecting prey.

 

 

Honey Bees not only ensure pollination takes place, they also carry pollen back to the hive for food reserves as a future means of survival. Watching them 'dance' among the blooms is quite captivating!

 

 

Some of nature's creatures work side-by-side independently, playing a large role in the healthy balance in a garden, their presence is crucial to overall success. An absence means the garden may struggle to maintain health.

 

When working together to reach set goals, it is important that all parties to the transaction embrace their roles and put forth positive, productive results in order to be successful for the clients sake.

 

Happy Sunday all from Nerdin Gardens, we are taking the day off!

Wanda, what a sweet metaphore!  And never knew ladybugs love aphids.  It's better than the chemical stuff for your rose bushes.

Thank you Patricia Kennedy. Ladybugs and Praying Mantis' are natural alternatives to maintaining  a garden against pests, not to mention marigolds. Good to see you!

Good morning Wanda.  I like your analogy by also placing the praying mantis in the group.  there has to be someone to control the ones that are unwanted....
