Had a little visitor in the garden tonight! Enjoy!












Anyone know what this thing is? It gets bigger every year.

I do, and these are lovely pics, although I have not the slightest clue what the 'green thing' might be.

LOL! Thank you.

I think the green thing may be a tulip tree.

I love butterflies.

And after doing alot of research...I'm pretty sure the "green thing" is a plant. It fits all specifications. So, I'd bet $1 that the green thing is a plant.



Sami

P.S. All smart @ss comments aside, I second the tulip tree notion.

The edit was 45 minutes previous, Purple. I edited it because I voted in a "Tulip Free"....so, I changed it to "Tree". But it was immediate. I didn't change it recently. It was like 10 seconds after my original post...not 45 minutes.

Isn't it available on the post. Doesn't it give a time? They don't match up, if it does. Look for yourself, Purple! :P

I'm afraid I'm going to kill it. Oh, well, I'm going to have to try, apparently this is one fast growing BIG tree!
