Cecelia, I think those Monarchs are up to no good! Rolling on the floor laughing

I bought some plants today but to keep myself from typing it all over again, let me just point you guys to the post I made over in the Florida gardening thread: http://garden.org/thread/view_...

Bring on the caterpillars! Oh, and when I was shopping I did find some caterpillars on the milkweed for sale. I was leaning over and said, "Baby Monarchs!" I talk kind of loud and the owner heard me and went, "Yay!" Here's a blurry picture of the tiny guys. Of course, I didn't buy milkweed because they only had the tropical variety and you know I'm going native this year.

This morning we had some rain come through and it's been getting cooler all day and kind of windy. But I did see one of my faithful Duskywings out this morning when the sun was still shining.
