Questions & Comments

If I plant this will these catapillars just come to the plant all by themselves?

It may take a while. The butterflies lay their eggs on the fennel. They hatch into caterpillars which eat the fennel so they can turn into butterflies.

I just met two women that grew this in Cape May NJ this weekend. And they took the time to show me their baby catapillars ! It was neat!
