Oh Barb,
Those red/orange cats with spikes are Gulf Fritillaries. They will devour the plants and make them unsellable. They definitely need a separate area with plants like you're saying. The new plants have to be checked daily for the little cats daily. The females are very busy and prolific once they find a good host plant. Don't kill em, lol!

What you said would work, see if you can do it.


Gulf Fritillaries are beautiful, They are Heliconians like the Zebra Longwing up there Linda is raising and in my pic. The both use Passionvine,
