PrettyTiny Film Company Pic A Week *2019* (#.....52!! Dec. 24)
Thanks, everyone!  I love these flowers.  I'd never heard of "dipladenia" (although I knew of mandevilla) till I came across it in a garden shop.  Now it's a must-find.  Last year I brought them in with hopes of coaxing them through the winter and they just packed up & died sad  Will try again.  I need more room for indoor plants slash
The hurricane was just a rainstorm.  Some glads & dahlias got knocked down and the latest power outage appears to have killed a little alarm clock.  We were very lucky compared to the damage elsewhere.

No, I don't think so... is that hard to do? Sounds interesting!
Tell her to look up Monarch Watch; she might like to tag for them. I wouldn't call it "hard", but you do have to handle them very carefully.  They're fragile and yet incredibly sturdy considering the length of their migration.  I tagged for 10 years or so in Ontario & then the east coast, for the Urquharts, whose research discovered the Monarchs' overwintering site (actually I think it was a grad student who found it).  One of my butterflies was found in Mexico!  Guinness wouldn't let us have the longest-flight record because they had another that was found in Texas, which they "assumed" had spent the winter in Mexico & then started north again.  Booo -- they could never prove that!

Anyway, on that note, here's a woodland goddess Natalie with one of this week's hatchlings.  Many doll-&-butterfly pix to come, I hope.
