I discovered these cats this weekend on the C. alata I have babied from seed since spring. It is not more than 3'-4' tall. I hope the cats leave enough foliage so the plant can bloom before frost!

There are as many as 15 in varying stages of development. I have never reared sulfurs - does anyone take them in? Do they eclose or overwinter?

Please help with information.

Thanks.
