Painted Lady

We grew butterflies, Painted Ladies. This is one on the apple tree just after release.





























The fine detail of the "boring" side of the wings is beautiful.



















We mostly grew them to see if the process would help reduce Hazel's butterfly (and most almost every other flying insect) phobia. Very successful, but they were so much fun we'll get some more anyway...
