Host Plant to add to FAQ Host Plant List

12 years ago

Larry,

I was looking down through the host plants in the FAQ and I want to add one that isn't included there. Last year I raised some Clouded Sulphurs on wild indigo (Baptisia australis) and thought that you might like to add it to the list. Thanks.

Thanks Cathy, there were a couple of false indigos in there, your wild indigo is now added for the clouded sulphur.

I was also able to convert some hyphens, that were displaying in Chrome browsers as gibberish, into dashes in the hostplant list.
