California Poppies
I love wild flowers! Even if they are planted in pots on our patio, they still resemble wild flowers.

The Ladybug Brigade
Today, purchased some ladybugs from Ludeman's Farm and Garden Store called Healing Pond on 12675 SW Canyon Rd.
This morning I found aphids on the fuchsia plant. Thought it was the end of our beautiful relationship! I was so sad. Cruised the Internet and found that ladybugs eat aphids among other things. Whoo-hoo! So, we drove to Ludeman's farm and garden store and they did have ladybugs for sale.
They are pretty impatient.
I couldn't wait for evening because I was impatient too!
I sprinkled water on the dahlias and then sprinkled the ladies on them.
They have been working hard on the fuchsia for a while. Hope they stick around but being a realist, these ladies probably ate all the aphids already. According to the Internet they eat as much as 50 aphids a day!

| Amazing, a whole 1,500 l adybugs for $8. I hope they can help my fuchsia make a comeback! |
