This is also a ladybug. Well not quite, itโ€™s a ladybug larvae. They look like small dragons. As the adult ladybugs they eat aphids but unlike the adults they canโ€™t fly away, so if aphids invade your flowers or plants, ladybugs larvae might be an eco friendly alternative ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ™‚

this territory is moderated

And this is a ladybug pupae. So you could see ladybugs in almost every stage ๐Ÿ‘

I also learned that by accident, had a problem with aphids โ€œeatingโ€ my roses at a balcony and a friend of mine advised me to get ladybugs larvae, of course, I had no idea how they looked like at that time ๐Ÿ™‚

Interesting, can I put ladybug larvae in any plant? I have a couple of plants that are having trouble surviving

They helped me with aphids indeed. So I would say yes, if this is what your plants are having problems with.
