Jun. 22nd, 2008 10:40 pmLast year at this time, I didn't give a crap about flowers or gardening or landscaping or anything.
This year, I am agonizing over whether to move the astilbe and phlox into deeper shade and then replace them with swamp milkweed as a host plant for monarchs and also some black-eyed susans.
I am also pleased to introduce you to my new friend.

This is Mr. Feets. Mr. Feets is a swallowtail caterpillar whom I found on my parsley plant when I turned it around to find out why it wasn't growing. Turns out that Mr. Feets here was hungry, and we have adopted him and planted him a whole forest of parsley.
As you can see, he has many cute little feeties, and he was last seen chowing down on parsley leaves.
I shall call him squishy and he shall be mine. :D
