Today I went to my favorite local nursery, Hollie's. They always have tons of butterflies flying around and lots of caterpillars. It's good to buy local, and I appreciate a nursery that doesn't spray everything with pesticides. By the way, studies suggest that each dollar you spend at a local business is circulated up to three times more in your community than if you had spent that dollar at a chain store. So support a local business - it's good for the whole community!

I bought several kinds of sage, some cardinal flower, yellow gaillardias, and red pentas. Mom stood and watched a Polydamas ST fly around the pipevine. You can see it at the very top of this photo; it never stopped moving!
