Around early to mid summer I noticed the GF cats on it and letthem just eat away. Eventually, I saw the butterflies laying their eggs and more cats. Then, in a period of three days, the entire vine was devoured. Honestly, I thought the plant was dead and wouldn't come back. This is a night picture but I'm amazed. I've had over 10 blooms a day for a two week period and many more are coming. I guess this plant knows it has babies to feed. I with Beth - I too am so in love with the passies. I have a 'Lady Margaret' and 'Blue Bouquet' in the back. My Lady Margaret is also blooming profusely. Lovely, lovely plant and such a good provider. Good luck to you. |
