Tisra, if you plant dill or fennel you will get Black Swallowtails and if you plant Milkweed you will get Monarchs. Pretty impressive to see them gobble up whole plants in just a few days, but even more impressive to see them turn into butterflies. The fennel was in our yard and the milkweed was in a friend's yard. See what other plants are good hosts for butterflies in your area.
Bits and pieces of daily life, nomadic rambles, pickled cravings, piles of books, and a furry dog. Cajun, Jewish, Taiwanese, American family on the move.
Awesome pictures!!
I am so going to miss you, my friend.
Looking forward to getting together this week.
Oh my lord- those are some amazing pictures!! You have GOT to know that I am insanely jealous! :)
Stunning photographs and caterpillars! We NEVER find anything other than moth caterpillars here.
Thanks!
