Vegetable gardening in Japan... We grow about 40 to 50 types of vegetables, and about 20 types of fruits in our potager-garden... This photo-blog represents an attempt to document the thrills and challenges of a 'student-gardener'... For me, it is 'heavenly' enough just to be able to connect with the soil and nature, and if we get to eat the fruits of our labor, it is but an added bonus...

BLACK BUG WITH WHITE SPOTS
Saw this guy resting on a mulberry leaf (I think...) one morning in my garden.
I have never seen this bug before and I am clueless about its name and its life cycle.
I was just admiring its sheer beauty... until it had enough of my staring and clicking and went off hiding under the leaves... body length about 3 centimeters...
Scroll down Patrick’s Sanzen-in Temple post to see a red version of two bugs...
