I Capture The Cycle Of Life In Vines My Wife Brought To Our Garden Years Ago (9 Pics)

The Blooms Are Beautiful And Show Up All Summer
Then The Butterflies Came Back To Eat…
We Even Got Tons Of Maypops On It This Year
And To Lay Eggs
Then The Caterpillars Started Appearing And Eating Too
They Will Eventually Strip All The Leaves…
And We Will Have More Chrysalises Than Leaves On The Vines
Then We Will Have Tons Of Butterflies Flitting All Around!

I'm not sure what maypops are, but the flowers and butterflies are beautiful 😍
