Wow, that's a healthy gathering of the BST larvae there, shorthog. I am no expert. But like others I have read about their amazing diapause phenomenon.

Eventhough, a few of us here shared a common zone 7b. I supposed we all have different frost date? I happen to have one that pupated a couple of days ago. I'll keep track of its development and keep everyone posted. If indeed the pupa ecloses before frost. My question then, will it fly further south to overwinter as a butterfly?
