    Hi all.

    I have the following tree in my garden:
    http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Gardenia_volkensii_subs...
    http://www.plantzafrica.com/plantefg/gardeniavolk.htm

    It is indigenous to South Africa and have now seen these insects on it. The insects started at about 8mm in size and all are now about 3cm - 5cm in size and the complete bush/tree is full of them.

    Can anyone tell me what they are?
    Are they good or bad for the tree?
    Are they indigenous to South Africa?
    Should I get rid of them?

    Thanks
