ID Bugs On Roses Please?
Found two yesterday, and just found another one on a different bush today.
The bug is quite big and conspicuous- about 5mm or so long. It has wings. The head and upper body are black, the lower body is bright orange and soft; if I squash one, it appears to be orange inside(!) like a sac of soft orange stuff. They appear to travel down the stem leaving a black stripe- either cutting a stripe or laying eggs in a line inside(?), can't easily tell. Any idea what they are, and if so, are they harmful? I've never seen one before, but then I've never been a rose gardener before, kind of thing. Any ID gratefully appreciated. Ian |
