Now for the real excitement...I've often complained that I don't see passion vine in the wild although I know it's got to be around somewhere. I obtained a passiflora incarnata last year and last week I noticed it had just sprouted some new growth. I saw some plants that I thought looked a lot like today and so I inspected further. The first few I saw had nothing on them, but then I walked into a little area that had been cleared by the fire. I saw some Gulf Frits flying around which is always a good sign. Then, I saw a plant that looked a little chewed! I found a couple Gulf Frit cats so I knew I had a passiflora. I kept looking and found - my first Zebra Longwing cat!
