Great Green Bush-Cricket in an Herb Garden
Herb gardens provide a rich habitat for tiny garden creatures, including the impressive great green bush-cricket. This insect perches along stems of flowering caraway plants, surrounded by clusters of small white umbrellas of flowers. A wooden or painted marker sign designates the plant varieties growing throughout the garden beds.
Fascinating Characteristics of Bush-Crickets and Caraway
Unlike common grasshoppers, bush-crickets have extremely long, slender antennae that can extend far past their bodies to sense surroundings. Caraway is a historical culinary herb whose small white flowers bloom in structures called umbels. Great green bush-crickets produce their signature chirping sound by rubbing their front wings together rather than using their legs.
