I have the following tree in my garden: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Gardenia_volkensii_subs... http://www.plantzafrica.com/plantefg/gardeniavolk.htm It is indigenous to South Africa and have now seen these insects on it. The insects started at about 8mm in size and all are now about 3cm - 5cm in size and the complete bush/tree is full of them. Can anyone tell me what they are? Are they good or bad for the tree? Are they indigenous to South Africa? Should I get rid of them? Thanks |
