Look at this beautiful little guy who came to visit me this morning while I enjoyed my coffee on the deck! I’ve never seen a #ZebraSwallowtail before, but I’m glad to see our #butterfly population is growing since I planted the #BeeBalm & #SwampMilkweed in the #garden!

Took some time away from work today to get the #SwampMilkweed & #BeeBalm in the ground, ahead of the horrible 90-101F 10 day forecast coming our way. Added some mulch to try and keep them from drying out too much. Hopefully these will bring some more #pollinators to our #garden!

Teaching them young: how native plants like swamp milkweed help bees, butterflies, and the whole web of life. No worms were harmed in the planting of this pollinator paradise. 🐛🦋🐝
