UncleGreenthumb wrote: What gave me the idea for sugar water was seeing so many different butterflies on the hummingbird feeders last summer. I did get some mixed fruit and put it on a plate. That worked fine, for the next two days until a jumping spider got a hold of it. Needless to say that did the yellow winged wonder in.. Oh well, at least I got to enjoy it for three weeks or better.. I put one of the other chrysalis in the cold frame so it wouldn't be hatching out to soon. The other I think is low enough attached to one of the base boards that it should stay cool. That one might hatch early though once I start heating up the place a little warmer next month when I start sowing seed. At least there should be more plants blooming by then.. Thanks for all the help and suggestions cindylove & strange2u. Dave |
