Butterfly plants can also be rated (I've seen both one to three and one to ten systems) as to relative attractiveness also. Some seem to be favorites, others used occasionally.<BR/><BR/>About the great copper, Shapiro (Field Guide to the Butterflies of the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento Valley Regions) says that Grindelia camporum is among its favorite nectar plants. But he also says "the great copper is ... rather picky about nectar sources" and notes, regarding its utilization of Grindelia camporum: "Remarkably, it does not seem to visit other species in the gum plant genus!"<BR/><BR/>Examining the detailed pollinator lists at the Insect Visitors of Illinois Wildflowers web site such pickiness even within a genus doesn't seem so uncommon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3491180222722502706.post-30087490185232540442008-04-23T11:47:00.000-07:002008-04-23T11:47:00.000-07:00Hi Judith, I ran across your book while doing an i...Hi Judith, <BR/>I ran across your book while doing an internet search on my dad, Bun Lucas.

I wonder if anybody knows where you can find info on the original stuff for an area.<BR/><BR/>I live over here in Orland, in Glenn County and I've wondered for a long time what was here originally. -Before everything was cut down, tore up by cattle, plowed, and then finally "developed." The few poppies I see around now are just the kind you describe. The kind you pick up at Wall-Mart. That is, until I go up into the hills to the west of town.<BR/><BR/>There, with a little luck, I can sometimes find something hiding along side the dirt roads, amongst all the star thistle and non-native annual grasses, that is smaller and has a lite yellow flower.<BR/><BR/>I don't know if this represents what would have been growing lower down in the valley, or something unique to those hills. So, my strategy is to use your "basic" poppy seeds, as something is better than nothing. And when you're starting from scratch, you have to start with "something."<BR/><BR/>I was thinking of collecting some of those seeds, though, and planting them in the back yard just to see what would happen. But they look so hard pressed up there, that I kind of want to just leave them alone. What do you think. <BR/><BR/>Sincerely, joedog.joedoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00524533517612822159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3491180222722502706.post-42594096560462956472007-07-19T09:58:00.000-07:002007-07-19T09:58:00.000-07:00Happy Birthday!!!!Happy Birthday!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
