Did you know the plants in the ground around the edge of our garden were planted to attract butterflies and moths? We currently have several Queen Butterfly Caterpillars visiting our garden.
 
 
 The Queen Caterpillars are eating our Mexican Milkweed in preparation to chrysalis. Don't worry that is what the plant is for. This is very exciting because in a few weeks we will hopefully have some cocoons hiding around the garden. 
 
Feel free to say hello to our guests but please don't touch them! We will keep you updated on their status. 
 
Here is the Mexican Milkweed in our garden. How many caterpillars can you find?
