And in an example of why you don't need pesticides because nature can figure it out on her own...I was plucking Monarch cats off the milkweed when I noticed a ladybug right smack dab in the middle of the aphids. I'm hoping she was laying eggs that will hatch and eat all the little aphids.

I rounded up three big Monarch cats which I just don't understand because I thought I turned over every leaf on those plants two days ago! Where do they hide? I also brought in another Zebra Longwing egg. That's the report from Tampa!
