Beautiful, Melanie. I just love that 'Black and Blue' salvia.
Ron, really interesting beetle convention there - were they actually eating or harming the plant, or just congregating on it? I thought most beetles like that were scavengers, not plant-eaters.
I did have stink bugs that ruined a lot of my ginger flowers last year, but I used DE on them and it worked like a charm. Non, toxic, too!
