Mellie (all), I will let you know if the butterflies use the native plants. Last summer, I got seriously hooked into butterflies, so I'm expanding the plantings this year. I didn't get any EBS in Atlanta, but I know they are seen here. So fingers crossed this year. I had some Sleepy Orange visitors, but I did not have a host plant for them so again - fingers crossed.
It is really nice to see the pics from FL to keep all those summer dreams of beauty coming
