Beautiful , shiny multi coloured beetles.....
They seem to be favouring the Curry leave trees.....
The curry leave tree is a small (4-6m) tree/shrub with aromatic leaves that are used in Indian cooking.
It also has small white flowers and small, shiny black berries.
We use the leaves in curries and it is usually fried with garlic and onions in the initial stages of preparing a dish.
To get back to the beetles....
I think it is a Leaf Beetle.... if my friend mr Google is right...
and I really hope they do not cause too much harm...as you know, we try and be as organic as possible
Claude and I DO NOT SPRAY !!!!
Keeping a close eye on them....
