Zebra Swallowtail
Zebra Swallowtail nectaring on Butterfly Weed, Asclepias tuberosa. Zebra Swallowtail's only have one host plant, Pawpaw (Asimina triloba). I'm very fortunate to have many wild Pawpaws growing around my yard and in the back woods.

Pawpaw - is that a type of cactus?

What a great shot. The bright orange milkweed makes the swallowtail literally jump off the photo.!
What else?
See who else is growing Asclepias tuberosa.
See who else has plants in genus Asclepias.
