I'll miss All Things Plants! Things change, I guess. Now that one of my two tiger cats has turned green, I see it's a Two-tailed Tiger Swallowtail. The eyespots are much different than the eastern one.

And this is another story...found some Monarch cats at a display garden at a nursery in the city, 5th instar, no small cats or eggs. So I took a couple of them home (cat-napped them), figured if they make it to be butterflies, I'll be able to release them. Sure enough, one pupated almost right away and the other one is hanging in a J now.

I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
