I went out to plant the new plants and it started raining. Normally, this is good but it only rained enough to wet the top part of the soil. So I came inside, did my workout, and then went back outside to really drench the new plants (as well as my orchids - they always want to be watered). While I was out there, I caught this Great Southern White hanging out in the butterfly garden. It's sitting on a Black and Blue salvia, by the way. This is the second one I've seen now! One of my books says they have years where they're very prevalent; this must be one of those years. I also saw a Spicebush but it was in no mood to stop. And of course, the usual Frits and Zebra LWs were out there. And the mosquitoes...arrgh!
