Cuckoo spit is most likely. If you look insdie you will see a tiny greeni nsect. Removal is easy, either wipe off with your fingers and squish the bug or wash of with a jet of water and watch the thing die of sunburn.

Thanks Martha. Delighted to know that you visited Hungary and enjoyed it. We think Budapest is one of Europes best kept secrets, it's such a beautiful city.

Thanks Greenfingers. From what I see on this site there are lots of people who have an amazing collection of plants. I often wish that I had some of the ones that others have too, I guess this site sets up wants in all of us.
