Yes,Barb we have lots of butterflies here in Texas.I just haven't been patient enough yet to get pictures. I just think your photos are great and the Lilac if wonderful.
Wow it's so amazing to see both beautiful flower and butterfly at the same time. It really makes me relaxed.
Our Swallowtails are late in coming this year, not to mention the others. My Butterfly plants are in bloom waiting for them to swarm on them.
So pretty! I have seen nary a butterfly so far... I wonder why? I hope they come soon. Till then, I'm glad to see yours.
