This is also a ladybug. Well not quite, it’s a ladybug larvae. They look like small dragons. As the adult ladybugs they eat aphids but unlike the adults they can’t fly away, so if aphids invade your flowers or plants, ladybugs larvae might be an eco friendly alternative 😉🙂
And this is a ladybug pupae. So you could see ladybugs in almost every stage 👍

wow how interesting, I didn't know anything about that, I thought they were different insects. Thanks for that information

I also learned that by accident, had a problem with aphids “eating” my roses at a balcony and a friend of mine advised me to get ladybugs larvae, of course, I had no idea how they looked like at that time 🙂

Interesting, can I put ladybug larvae in any plant? I have a couple of plants that are having trouble surviving

They helped me with aphids indeed. So I would say yes, if this is what your plants are having problems with.
