Dutchmans pipe...pipevine and gold rim swallowtail!

In the past 7 months i have been transforming a portion of my yard into a butterfly garden. I have perfected the Monarch and now have gold rim swallowtails and gulf fritillary. I see peacock butterflies but no caterpillars yet. Great yard and plants. Im over here taking notes from port st you or you dad can recommend any goof nurseries, let me know. Im always looking for my next favorite. I have 1 or 2 by me but travel to go to others

Beautiful yard, your dad is a great gardener. I try so hard but Mother Nature doesn't always cooperate. I am in North Florida.

So cool. I have read that some exotic pipevines like the Giant pipevine and the elegant pipevine can be either distasteful or poisonous to the Pipevine Swallowtail. So be careful on what species you get.

My neighborhood has plenty of pipevine plants and I never see pipevine swallowtails. I saw a giant swallowtail once and a few atalas but never a pipevine swallowtail, why could that be?

That ugly plant and hideous flower is a Dutchman pipe. I can’t stand it. It stinks the high heaven! However, it brings one of the most beautiful butterflies on the face of the Earth, so I planted one of my yard.

Pipeline swallow tail, I'm trying to find someone who has them for sale ads dried SPECIMENS, any one know anything?

[tylermack]

Is it possible for a pipevine and gold rim swallowtail to mate because they are both pipevine butterflies, because I know that the viceroy and red spotted purples to mate. I was just wondering if it was the same for them

I'm searching about battus polydamas cause I found one caterpillar in a piece of wood and my mom was going to kill it...
I had nothing to protect it so I did a thing with a pet bottle (?)
I don't have any big plants at home (even outside) and my cat would probably eat the caterpillar :c
Hope it survives, It's already at the next phase (?) I don't know the name in English, sorry
When it ends the phase of transforming into a cocoon (?) what should I do? cause It's in the ground... Should I leave there? clue it in a twig? I really don't know :c

Can you help me?

sorry for my English, I'm Brazilian
