I have just now started to see them again. Year before last I had a big Cassia tree and loved it. It was always covered with some sort of wasps but they only seemed to be feeding on nectar.

I didn't find any cats tho so I was wondering if I had the "right" kind of Cassia. So I dug this pic up and now that I've been "butterfly gardening" for a few years I noticed what this butterfly was doing!! She appears to be laying eggs! I guess I did have the right kind, but now I'm thinking maybe those wasps did eat the cats.

So, back to the plant, I've had a few come up from seed last year and this year but they are so slow growing. The must take a long time to germinate or it's just because they are usually underneath other foliage. I moved the 2 I found this year but they are still less than 6". They better hurry because now I'm really excited!
