Cool! Those nasty green caterpillars will eat anything. I've found them on several different plants in my garden. Go eat the wild plants! I have something chewing on my Mitraria coccinea and some other plants, but I haven't been able to catch it in the act. It's becoming incredibly frustrating. Sigh...happier thoughts, happier thoughts. The Leucodendron and bromeliad are gorgeous.

Do the pink seed pods last only one day? I thought they lasted longer. Ohhh and those leafcutter bees keep messing around with my arbutus unedo and cut up all the leaves. I think they make smaller nest cells here in Spain.Lisa C.

It was wedged under an echeveria on the edge of the pot, a little dug in. I had no idea what it was when I found it, so took it apart. There's more than one of those round leaf cuts on top, and in between each one. They looked like they'd been made with a hole punch.
