But the adult butterfly can nectar on many flowers. 
Good...I could not believe that if they ate leaves from another flower they would die. But, you know the internet and those who think they know it all. Thanks again.
My plants are in the mail and they should be here tomorrow. I think I will put them outside with my tomatoes and peppers since it gets to be over 105 in the greenhouse just now with everything open. Outside they will get fresh air and sunshine and water on a regular basis with natural heat and cool temps instead of too hot during the day.
