Just submitted my record to the RHS database. https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=555

Anyone else come across this critter?

    Yes, I did admire it before I stomped on it!

    I had bought the rosemary a few days before hand, and noticed the beetle sat in that exact position for 2 days in a row. It gave me a sense that something might be up with it, so I checked online.

    Check every day until they stop appearing. I didnt notice eggs or anything, but they kept appearing for a few days or so.
