I planted some Salvia and bought some coneflowers and passionflower seeds. They are starting to grow already. I did have a Black Swallowtail visiting yesterday and I watched a Monarch lay some eggs on my Sunflowers (didn't know that could be a host for them!). Lucky me because the sunflowers are kinda growing wild. I didn't have the heart to pull them up. I'm going to put out a puddling area for them. Off to a good start!
I found this pretty little moth flying around... the wings are pink on the inside and orange, black, and white on the outside.. anyone know what it is?
