Still seeing American Lady butterflies around our garden so there must be host plants nearby.

We have lots of monarch and black swallowtail larvae in our gardens most years. Last year when I was out in the garden, a b.s. caterpillar was crawling very rapidly in the area I was working in. It spent a lot of time looking for a place to pupate (Hours). Finally it attached to a hosta flower stem. I kept a watch on it, and on the chrysalis, and one day had the privilege of seeing the empty chrysalis with the beautiful butterfly right there, having just emerged. Such a wonderful thing to witness. Love God's nature and creatures and Him allowing me to witness this!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09792341123595520130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-41792477683976544652017-06-03T11:34:39.908-04:002017-06-03T11:34:39.908-04:00Lisa ~ Mine are planted in mostly shade.

Oh, and it grows best in poor soil.Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-62794289985992128382017-06-03T10:52:14.653-04:002017-06-03T10:52:14.653-04:00P.S.
