| | | Hello
I found this site after googling the Duke of Argyll's Tea Plant. And I found that after looking up habitat of the Death's Head Hawk Moth, having found two of them mating in our garden. I'm wondering if they will be able to lay eggs in our Chilean Potato Plant which comes from the same family as a potato, their advertised caterpillar food. How magnificent they were. Although our garden is full of butterflies you'd have to say the insect population is alarmingly down on previous years at the moment, maybe because of the cold spring. |

Thanks, and hello! I guess I'll find out when or if the caterpillars appear - supposed to be huge and fearsome, about 4" long: can't wait! |
