Passion Vines bring Gulf Fritillarys

    We planted passion vines in our front yard and within 2-3 weeks the butterflies had found them and we had Gulf Frit caterpillars all over the vine.  They will consume most of the leaves, but in return you get these beauties coming out right in your yard...great for kids, take in the chrysalis and make sure it has plenty of space and sticks to climb on, and you'll be able to release the butterfly when it emerges.
