Re: CULT: aphids and butterflies


Hi Jan,

I wasn't aware that there is a Butterfly Pavillion at Myrtle Beach.  Could you tell me were its located or give me the address.  Sure wouldn't want to see butterflys hurt.

  Hi all,
        We have a very interresting unique situation here, speaking of 
  butterflies.   An attraction(we're in a resort area) called the BUTTERFLY 
  PAVILLION has opened and it features tremendous varieties of butterflies 
  flying around loose, indoors usually, but we've noticed some very unusual 
  butterflies in our yard lately, I think some "escapees".   
        Regarding the aphids,  we get them very early here because our winters 
  are so mild (usually).   I always simply opt for squishing them all with my 
  glove covered hand, removing leaves that have them down in the leaf base.    
  And I have noticed some iris varieties I have just don't seem succeptable to 
  aphids.    I have had some iris flowers eaten from time to time, would this 
  be from aphids also?
