Taking pictures of the butterfly garden and working down there after being gone so long was a pleasure. I will add additional posts with pictures of the overall growth in the butterfly plantings.
I know there were many more butterflies utilizing the area than I could get shots of so don't despair we still have many more species than contained within these photographs. For all you Sanlander's that helped out with upkeep, weeding, planting; it is important to realize that the survival of our hard work is due to the dedication of the grounds keeping staff of Sanlan RV Park and adequate rainfall over the summer months.
Please be sure to thank them when you get back and enjoy the fruits of all of our labor. I did plant more seeds when I was out there taking shots. My husband and I weeded, watching out for the many fire ants that had taken up residence in the garden. We also sowed special butterfly vine seeds on the newly established trellis. Hopefully these pipevine seeds will sprout and grow in before we get any seriously cold weather.
Can't wait to see everyone back during the season.
Susan
