So lovely Theresa🌟

# candletree #cassia-alata #senna-alata #empress-candle-tree it's taller than anyone I've ever grown! Gonna need a ladder to collect the seedpods! 😂

it is good for dyeing di fabric.. i hope i can find it in my place

#sulphurcaterpillar

#sulphurcaterpillar, neat how they turn yellow from eating the flowers

The caterpillars are hard to see when they are on the flower, this one is on the left...

#weedseqld

Shame it’s a weed here. I love the yellow. Can’t be bothered getting rid of all seedings.

#sulphurcaterpillar....not sure which one...they are yellow when they eat the cassia flowers!

Glad the caterpillars are leaving this branch alone! Flowers=seeds!

This looks great 👍. Can't wait to have a go at growing these in a few months 😊

The two I sent you @jeatacake are 2 other varieties... The leaves are a little bigger on the candle tree and the popcorn cassia have more narrow longer leaves 😆 but the flowers are beautiful on all! :) hope to collect seed from this one too!

WOW! Theresa, I was looking at the plants: Candle Tree and Popcorn Cassia. They r both really Pretty❣️ I'd love to try growing them,if you have seeds to share. My other babes are still hanging in there😉😊😍

Theresa,can u give me any ideas on planting some plants together for butterflies. I've got a few from this yr and wanting to add alot more for my garden😀 Thnxs in Advanced❣️😍

@Acetaker They flock to lantana, verbena, plumbago, Mexican torch flower, sunflowers, zinnia, milkweed, look for native wildflowers in your area, grow those too! I'm sure there are lots more that you may find in your area, vs here in Fl, when you see butterfly pics look to see what flowers they are on :)

Here they love Zinnias, touchmenots,etc that I did grow this yr. I've seen them even ok m some flowers that wouldn't think they would love..lol! I wanted to thank u again for my babes. Just let me know if u may have seeds for the ones I mentioned in comment.. thnxs again😉😊😍

#cloudlesssulphurcaterpillar Looks like he is wearing a blanket...getting ready for some cool weather! Lol!

@columbiariver the label just said cassia, I know there are many varieties....she is fixing to bloom, if the cats don't eat them I will keep some seeds for you! :)

#wishlist for reference 💕

Keep finding babies, #sulphurcaterpillars but not much bigger than this...not sure what is happening to them 😧 been on the look out for wasps...

Y r u looking for wasps..DUHHH, killing catapillars?

Parasitic wasps are cool. Some are very tiny called fairy flies 0.5mm

Yes, I agree @moore.794 very interesting creatures. Just not very friendly in a butterfly garden! 😕

Not sure if that is whats going on @Acetaker! Just one possibility 😑

😯

Hey I just sent that email I hope it made it to you. Thanx again.

Got it @spyder1980 :) emailed you back!

I can't wait to have all the flowers I'm going to have next year...maybe I can attract more butterflies! 🦋🐛

@PunkyKy are you growing host plants? Like Milkweed, dill, parsley?

No milkweed...no parsley... @treefrog44

I will send you those seeds @punkyKy ....as well as some cassia too! You will attract a lot more monarch, swallowtail and sulphur butterflies with them!

Love how the dew drops cling to the edges!
