I saw a Sulfur a day after a deep freeze and was pleasantly surprised to see it. <br /><br /><br />The two latest bloomers here are willowleaf asters and groundsel trees. The bees and butterflies appreciate them for sure!<br />sweetbayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06248743114944736346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-46477697643793508572013-11-21T21:30:18.822-05:002013-11-21T21:30:18.822-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.sweetbayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06248743114944736346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-41356434250601506992013-11-21T14:47:17.793-05:002013-11-21T14:47:17.793-05:00I'm not surprised you had butterflies--I'd...I'm not surprised you had butterflies--I'd rather be in Georgia right now, too. ;-) But I still can't believe I saw one in Wisconsin last week. I raked all our leaves a few days ago and most of them went into the woods behind our house--perfect warm carpet of habitat for the overwintering chrysalises (sp?). I still can't believe they survive our winters, but some do.

I saw a Cloudless Sulphur two days ago and we had light snow. It was in the meadow and I had no idea what it was going to eat since all is dry and brown. I still have flowers blooming, but have not seen butterflies here. My garden is like yours, it provides a lot of leaf litter. I leave it until Spring.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-7702357216882981962013-11-20T21:43:32.464-05:002013-11-20T21:43:32.464-05:00It's amazing how these fragile looking creatur...It's amazing how these fragile looking creatures make it through weather that I sure would not want to be outside in! I find it fascinating how they make it through the winter. I'm glad these late butterflies were able to find a few last blooms and a kind gardener to provide some supplements for them!Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004102653896371835noreply@blogger.com
