Ladybugs have long life spans compared to many other insects. From egg to larvae to pupa to adult takes just a month, but they can easily live for a couple of years as an adult. Have you ever wondered where they go in the winter? Like bears, they hibernate; and they hibernate in groups. Except for those who can find shelter in a house, or in this ladybugs case, in Country Gardens Nursery. I couldn't help but see quite a few of these wonderful little creatures the other week when wandering through the nursery gardens. I can't think of a more perfect place for a ladybug to over-winter than in a bright and lush nursery. I;m sure this little guy would be a snowbird if he were human.
